That was crazy. The runner was approaching Bae, but Bae threw to 3B instead of tagging him.
Once again, the Casey Stengel quote, "Doesn't anyone here know how to play this game?"
I can kind of understand it. It's a quirky rule that rarely happens.
Funny thing...I have a very close friend who umpired in AAA and is still to this day considered one of the foremost experts on the rules of baseball. He wrote the textbook used by both major umpiring schools for their rules courses. He has told me some funny stories of his time umpiring. He worked in the minors with a lot of guys who are in MLB right now, and he said you'd be amazed at how poorly big league umpires know the rules.
In fact, he said that's how you become a crew chief. You know the rules. A lot of times even MLB umpires don't know these goofy rules, which is why they often consult with the crew chief to sort things out.

Rameriz does what Underwood can’t. Let’s try to have a boring finish.

McCutchen can’t get a fourth hit tonight and strikes out. What a bum!

He's a great guy. We did quite a bit of continuing ed together a few years ago. We'd sit and talk baseball over a few beers at night. Only problem with him is, he's a Vikings fan.

He's also a rather prolific writer. This is a sample of his writing on baseball rules.
