2016/7/15 17:07:02


Question
Today in my softball game, after a batter hit the ball and was 3/4 of the way to first the umpire would keep calling time before the running fully got to first base. The umpire said he can call time anytime he wants to, but can he call time while the runner is running and the ball is still being thrown in from the outfield?

Answer
Hi Matt,

well I guess you could print this out and show it to them.

10-4-E. An umpire will not call time while any play is in progress, including when a thrown ball hits an umpire.
EXCEPTION: During a live ball situations, when a player becomes injured
and requires immediate attention, then umpireshall call time.
F. An umpire will not call time if requested by the offensive team after the pitcher has started the delivery.
G. During a live ball situations, when a player becomes injured and in the umpire抯j udgment requires immediate attention, the
umpire shall call 揟IME? Award any bases that would have been
reached.
H. Umpires will not suspend play at the request of players, coaches or managers until all action in progress has been completed.
I. (Slow Pitch) When, in the judgment of an umpire, all immediate play is apparently completed, the umpire should call time.
