Message: [QUOTE="Beaner, post: 3997689, member: 1722"] Yup. 26 or so years ago, my American Legion team was ahead 3-2 with one out and runners on 2nd and 3rd in the bottom of the 9th. I was brought in to close it. I proceeded to get the first batter to fly out to deep right/center. The runner on 3rd tagged up and scored to tie it, while the runner on 2nd advanced to 3rd. My coaches had suspected the runner who scored left early, so we decided to appeal. I stepped off the mound, airmailed our 3rd baseman, and watched in horror as the winning run crossed the plate. To add insult to injury, the ump confirmed that the runner did, in fact, leave early. Ouch. [/QUOTE]
