NFHS Baseball Rules To Know Part 28-2-8 - ANSA runner acquires the right to the proper unoccupied base if he touches it before he
is out. He is then entitled to this base until he is put out, or until he legally touches the next base
while it is unoccupied or until a following runner is forced (2-24-1) to advance to the base he has
occupied. A runner need not vacate his base to permit a fielder to catch a fly ball in the infield,
but he may not interfere.
a. If two runners are on the same base, at the same time and both are tagged, the following
runner is declared out. On a force play situation, the runner who is forced to advance shall be
declared out when tagged on the base or the base to which he is forced is touched by a fielder
while in possession of the ball.
8-3-2 - ANSWhen a runner is obstructed (2-22) while advancing or returning to a base, the
umpire shall award the obstructed runner and each other runner affected by the obstruction the
bases they would have reached, in his opinion, had there been no obstruction. If the runner
achieves the base he was attempting to acquire, then the obstruction is ignored. The obstructed
runner is awarded a minimum of one base beyond his position on base when the obstruction
occurred. If any preceding runner is forced to advance by the awarding of a base or bases to an
obstructed runner, the umpire shall award this preceding runner the necessary base or bases.
Malicious contact supersedes obstruction. Runner(s) will be awarded appropriate base(s) per
umpire judgement. When obstruction occurs, the umpire gives the delayed dead ball signal and
calls "obstruction." If an award is to be made, the ball becomes dead when time is taken to
make the award.
8-3-6 - ANSWhen a plate umpire hinders, impedes, or prevents a catcher's throw attempting to
prevent a stolen base or retire a runner on a pickoff play, if an out is not made at the end of the
catcher's initial throw, the ball shall be dead and all runners shall return to the bases occupied at
the time of the interference.
Good to Note - ANSA batter is out if he hops over a fielder. If the fielder is laying down than this
is legal.
Points of Emphasis 2020 - Game Ending Procedure - ANSPer rule, by state association
adoption, a baseball game shall end when the visiting team is behind 10 or more runs after 4½
innings or after the fifth inning. However, if a state association does not adopt a game-ending
procedure or by mutual agreement of the opposing coaches and the umpire-in-chief, any
remaining play may be shortened, or the game terminated. Lopsided scores provide no
educational value, increase the risk of unsportsmanlike behavior, and put undue pressure on the
pitcher's arm that would impact his/her pitch count.
