If the umpire calls the interference...then yes

It's covered under Rule 5.08 of the official MLB rules:\n\n"If a thrown ball accidentally touches a base coach, or a pitched or thrown ball touches an umpire, the ball is alive and in play. However, if the coach interferes with a thrown ball, the runner is out."\n\nSo, play would continue as normal assuming the coach didn't purposely interfere with the ball.

After any out with no one on base, the infielders throw the ball around. On a strikeout, the catcher has the ball, so he throws to the third baseman. On a ground out, the first baseman throws to another infielder before the ball goes to the pitcher. They don't do this with men on base, because the runners could advance on a bad throw or they could just steal.

For a home run or any other situation where a runner is entitled to a base but becaome sinjured (such as a balk or a ball thrown into the stands)  can come in for the injured (or dead) runner.\n\nOne key is that no runners behind the injured player can pass the injured player before time is called, or the runner will be out.\n\nHeres a case where it happened to Gabe Kapler of the Red Sox (not death, but crippling injury):\n\nhttp://whitesox.mlb.com/NASApp/mlb/news/article.jsp?ymd=20050914&content_id=1210004&vkey=news_mlb&fext=.jsp&c_id=mlb

if the catcher blocks the plate, you are allowed to collide in order to get to  home base, not to jar the ball loose. I used to be a catcher in softball in Texas, I got plowed once because i was over the plate and the ball was being thrown to me, the person plowed me about 2 seconds before the ball got there. You are not allowed to collide in order to jar the ball loose. also remember, the tie goes to the runner.

no it is not unless the opposing team catches it in bounds before it hits the ground or if it is tipped behind the line of scrimmage then it is a live ball.. If nobody touches it and the kick is short and it bounces to the ground then it is a dead ball.

Depends on how the umpire views it, per Rule 6.05(h):\n\n6.05 A batter is out when-\n\n(h) After hitting or bunting a fair ball, his bat hits the ball a second time in fair territory. The ball is dead and no runners may advance. If the batter runner drops his bat and the ball rolls against the bat in fair territory and, in the umpire's judgment, there was no intention to interfere with the course of the ball, the ball is alive and in play; If a bat breaks and part of it is in fair territory and is hit by a batted ball or part of it hits a runner or fielder, play shall continue and no interference called. If batted ball hits part of broken bat in foul territory, it is a foul ball. If a whole bat is thrown into fair territory and interferes with a defensive player attempting to make a play, interference shall be called, whether intentional or not. In cases where the batting helmet is accidently hit with a batted or thrown ball, the ball remains in play the same as if it has not hit the helmet. If a batted ball strikes a batting helmet or any other object foreign to the natural ground while on foul territory, it is a foul ball and the ball is dead. If, in the umpire's judgment, there is intent on the part of a baserunner to interfere with a batted or thrown ball by dropping the helmet or throwing it at the ball, then the runner would be out, the ball dead and runners would return to last base legally touched.

By rule, if the catcher fails to catch the first strike, the runner may attempt to advance to first base and must be thrown or tagged out. Occasionally, if the ball gets behind the catcher, the runner may make it to first. If so, he is safe at first just as if he walked or got a base hit.\nThe exception is when first base is occupied at the time -- then, the above rule does not apply and the batter is out.

Yes, defensive three seconds. If you aren't within arms length of an offensive player in a defensive position (knees bent, protecting the post, etc.) you will be called for defensive three seconds. The penalty is one technical foul shot for the offensive team and the ball in a sideline out of bounds.

the plate is part of the field of play.  however, if the ball then enters foul territory, it is foul.  if it stayed in fair territory, it is fair.\n\nthe same goes for the bases.  if a ball hits third base, it is fair no matter where it goes after that.

If I remember correctly from my umpiring days, if a defensive player throws any part of his equipment at a batted ball and it makes contact, the batter and runners are awarded 3 bases, (It's the only 3 base award, and the most  severe) but the ball is still alive, and the batter can try to take home on his own if he/she wishes.  It doesn't matter on the park or the league, it is not an individual ground rule.\n\nFrom the baseball rule book:\n\n7.05\nEach runner including the batter runner may, without liability to be put out, advance...(b) Three bases, if a fielder deliberately touches a fair ball with his cap, mask or any part of his uniform detached from its proper place on his person. The ball is in play and the batter may advance to home base at his peril;  c) Three bases, if a fielder deliberately throws his glove at and touches a fair ball. The ball is in play and the batter may advance to home base at his peril.

A team rebound occurs when a missed shot goes out of bounds before anybody secures the rebound and your team is awarded possession. A deadball rebound occurs on a first foul shot when the ball is "dead" and the team taking the foul shots is automatically going to get another shot.

do u mean like where the guy tags the base after the ball has been caught and advances?\nif this is what u mean, then no. because if there are two outs and the ball is caught then that makes it three outs and that half of the inning is over so it would be pointless to tag

I got hit by a baseball?

ha-ha. my guess is it would be ruled a ground rule double if hit to the wall before it was consumed by wilbur. if eaten on the infield, the batter would have to stop at 1st and all other runners advance 1 base. then the pig is taken into custody by stadium security and a new ball is given to the pitcher.

Wierd rule, but as someone who scores games, I understand it.\n\nThe catcher gets credit for a putout on a strikeout. If the catcher doesn't actually catch the ball, there can't really be a putout. The catcher than has to throw the batter out at first base and the person covering first gets the putout. The catcher gets an assist.
