If there are men on second and
| third bases and the man on second
base runs over and touches third, who
| is out? A claims that the man on
| third base is forced off that bag and
| is out. b says the man who was on
second base is out and that he cannot
return to second base. Who wins?
BRASS BAND ABRAHAM.
| Nobody is out on the play as you
describe it, unless a fielder tags the
man who was on second with the ball
The runner on third base was not
forced out as the man from second
base had no right to go to third while
ittSvas occupied, unless the bases were
flied and the man at bat hit a
grounder. The man who went from
second to third base can return to
second base providing he is not tagged
out before recovering that base
! Therefore the bet is a draw, as both
are wrong.
