Lee was arguing that


Mar 6, 2018, 9:51 PM

The fielder left the field of play to make the catch. His feet was not on the ground and that is a grounds rule in this park. I think Lee was correct to challenge this

If the rule is that one foot has to be touching the ground


Mar 6, 2018, 9:51 PM

when you make the catch, the Monte was right.

If that’s the case what happens in the event of a homerun being robbed by an outfielder jumping above the outfield wall? Or is the rule you’re referring to only apply to foul ground?

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Can only assume it applies to foul ground. No idea why...


Mar 6, 2018, 10:03 PM

...Monte would argue it otherwise.

The only thing that happens if it's out of play is, it's an OUT. Just the same as if the catcher, catches a pop up out of play behind home plate!!!

Yup. You’re exactly right.

I for one am glad you are stopping. You are one of the most ignorant posters ever. You obviously think very highly of your own opinion, unlike the rest of us - RockHillTiger

Never heard of a park having it’s own rules. The Wofford guy make a great play. Should have been and was an out.

Every ball park has its own ground rules!

Re: Lee was arguing that


Mar 6, 2018, 10:04 PM

I’ve always thought of ground rules as universal because they usually are across the board at every park. I’ve never heard of an obscure rule that both feet must be on the ground to make a catch for an out.

Before each baseball game, the team managers meet with the umpires at home plate and exchange official lineups and go over the ground rules for that game. They vary from park to park regardless of what you have heard or think. For instance, if the game is being played in a park where an unusual event could happen, such as a fly ball hitting an overhead power line or perhaps a park where a fair ball could possibly go under a fence, these rules are explained to the coaches by the umpires. Happens at every game. It’s not always just “ one base over first , third and home”
All domed stadiums have rules regarding fly balls hitting speakers or other structures. Those are all local ground rules!

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I’m impressed Monte knew that rule and saw it in real time.


Mar 6, 2018, 9:54 PM

That said, that was an incredible illegal catch!

Definitely should be in SC Top 10.

Kind of a dumb rule...

Actually, it’s retarded.

Re: Lee was arguing that


Mar 6, 2018, 9:55 PM

I believe the rule is one or both feet on or over the playing area. If that is the case, it was a legal catch.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

As if those friggin umps actually know the rules.***

I wish I could give you more TUs on that reply.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Could hear the umps talking about feet on the ground...


Mar 6, 2018, 9:58 PM

...so I believe you are correct. Both feet were off the ground when he made the catch. But, it was ruled an out, so I have no idea why the feet on the ground was an issue. Seemed like a good out to me.

launched from the ground so it’s a good play. The rule is he can’t use the curb in front of the dugout, and he didn’t.

It looked like the 3rd base coach questioned that, which is fine. Umps got it right.

You are exactly right. That is a great definition of “local game rules”.

This rule applies in Kingmore but perhaps not every park where you play.
