Yes they can.
None until the ball hits the ground.
you can revive downed allies if they are on the ground with a pistol (last stand)
No. To force an out, the defensive player has to touch the runner with the ball or touch the runner with the glove while the ball is in the glove. A thrown ball touching a runner does not count.
The runner is out. If there is any question, the player should ask the umpire or his coach, not an opposing player.
The lead runner is the runner at the base closest to home plate when there is more than one runner on base. If there are runners on second base and third base, the runner on third base is the lead runner. If there are runners on first and second, the runner on second is the lead runner. If there is only one runner on base, there is no lead runner.
technically, no, that's why it is called a dead ball, all runners go back to the bag they were at before the play started. unless it is a ground rule double, however, then the runner gets two bases from where he started when the play began. so if the player began on second, he can score.
If the player gets to second base on his hit, it is a double. If a player is on first base and goes to second base on a pitch during another player's at bat, it is called stealing second base. If a player is on first base and goes to second base on another players hit, walk, ground out, etc., it is called being advanced to second base.
If the first baseman tags first base, the runner originally on first is therefore not forced to second base and he is safe at first.
say there is a runner on 1st and 2nd. the runner on second would run to 3rd and be safe then the runner on 1st would run twould be safeo second and say there is a runner on 1st and 2nd. the runner on second would run to 3rd and be safe then the runner on 1st would run twould be safeo second and
That depends on whether a runner is forced to vacate a base when a ground ball is hit. If there is a runner on first base and a ground ball is hit, the runner is forced to run to second base because the batter is running to first base. If there is also a runner on second base, that runner is forced to run to third because the runner from first is running to second. If a runner is not forced to run, they do not have to. If there are runners on first base and third base and a ground ball is hit, the runner at first is forced to run to second because the batter is running to first. But the runner on third is not forced to run because no runner is running to third base from second base.
Fielder has the right to occupy the territory necessary to field the ball, runner must give right of way to the fielder. In this case, runner is out.
NO. Base runner's must run the bases in the order they batted. If a runner overtakes another runner, he is automatically out.
