| The umpires ruling was this:
The ball was thrown from 3rd base and it hit the runner going home. The umpire's ruling was that the runner turned and watched the throw until it almost hit him and then turned and made sure that the throw hit him by running back onto the baseline when he was about a half step off the baseline in foul territory.
His judgement was that it was runner interference and then a dead ball. On the dead ball, the runners move back to the base they were at.
The ASA Rule book states that it's a judgement call on whether or not the runner interfered with a thrown ball.

| I would ask some of the guys from the team if this is true or not. Or ask the runner and see what his take is. I believe he's a pretty honest guy.
