Situation 1: The batter bunts the ball in fair territory and in running to first base unintentionally touches the ball. Umpire declares the batter runner out? Is the umpire RIGHT or WRONG? Situation 2: Runner on third coming toward the plate to score. Catcher is waiting for the ball blocking the runner from the plate. The catcher then receives the ball and tags out the runner. Umpire declares the runner out. Is umpire RIGHT or WRONG? Situation 3: The batter bats out of order and reaches base safely. An appeal is made before another pitch is delivered. The umpire declares the batter who reached base safely to be out. Is the umpire RIGHT or WRONG?   Membership in the Umpire Registry costs $25 per year and includes the following: Copies of all Little League Baseball Rule Books Baseball and Softball Rules, Electronic Edition of Little League Rules which you download from a website.
