Description

Listener Nick from NY wanted to understand more about the look back rule. He had heard us talk about it before, but as someone new to the sport, he was a little confused. So, we dropped what we were doing and recorded a "remote" episode, away from the friendly confines of the palatial UFS Studios in beautiful Central Ohio, where we attempted to really dig in and explain the rule.



Next, Nick had another question about a play that happened in a game where a runner was coming home, was deemed safe, then declared out on a coach's argument, then safe again after another discussion. What was going on? What should have gone on? Umpiring Fastpitch Softball Podcast to the rescue!
