Plays That Puzzle
-BY BILLY EVANS

What are the rights of the coach
er? play came up in a minor league
game last summer that brought up
the point as to whether the intent of
d coacher must be given cons.dera-
ton. With two out and runners on
second and third. with the ball in the
pitchers possession while standing
on the rubber. the coacher at third
dashed for the plate yelling. Home"
Home" His intent was to draw a
throw from the pitcher. The pitcher
stepped off the rubber. intending, per-
haps, to throw the ball home, but
seeing it was the coacher running,
made no play. The umpire declared
the runner on third out because Of
the act of the Coacher. He held that
If the coacher attempts to draw a
throw because of his actions. the
runner on third is out, whether or
not play is made.
Umpire Wns in tho Wrong.
The umpire was wrong in ruling
the runner on third was out because
OF the coacher's dashing toward the
plate. though no play was made. The
rule states he must draw the throw
to the home base for the runner to be
declared out. If such a play came up
, in a game in which l was the umpire
would suspend play and send the
coacher to the bench or the clubhouse.
