This weekend our catcher, also my DD, caught the 4th ball from our pitcher. As she was throwing the ball back to her pitcher, the batter now runner steps in front of the plate on her way to first and the ball hits her helmet and bounces towards the first base dugout. No one seems to know what to do and the runner scores from third. We lose this game by a run. I asked a couple people I know who are certified umpires and they both said there is no call and basically an error on the catcher? I have been doing this for some time and I would have thought something weird like this would be called interference or dead ball or something other than knock the ball away and score runs? Just wondering if I am that out of touch!
