I'm watching the 2A semifinals now, and there was just a weird situation that I don't understand the ruling on. Runners one second and third 1-0 count, 1 down. Lefty pitcher on the mound in the windup (I know, I know).
Runner breaks home for a suicide squeeze, pitcher steps off to throw home, batter stands on home to bunt the ball which goes 10 feet in front of the plate, fair. Catcher is run over who was on the plate.
Ruling is both runners advanced, but batter is given a strike and the AB continues. I'm confused by call in this situation. Any help?
