Dixie Softball Rules 10U Angels 2026
Scenario:
Runner on 3rd only bases not loaded
Ball four gets past the catcher “passed ball”
Runner breaks for home tagged out on attempt
Coach A: Ball is dead on the walk reference VI (D) tag out irrelevant runner goes back to 3rd.
Coach B: Ball is live because it was a passed ball reference V1 (B) advance on passed ball not considered stealing. Tag out stands.
VI - BASE RUNNING:
(A) – Base runners may steal any base, including home.
(B) – Base runners may steal only one (1) base at a time. NOTE: Advancing on passed balls, wild pitches, and overthrows is not considered as “stealing” a base and base runners run at the risk of being put out. and may advance as many bases as they can safely reach.
D) On a base-on-balls, the batter/base runner MUST stop at first (1st) base. All other base runners may advance one (1) base only if they are forced to because of the base-on-balls. NOTE: If a base runner was in the process of stealing a base when the batter was issued a base-on-balls, the base runner must return to the last base she legally occupied unless forced to advance.
What's the call Blue!?
