Runners on second and third bases, batter hits a line drive that hit the third base bag, then bounces and hit the third base coach, then bounces back and the girl that was on third bases who now running get hit by the ball, then the ball roll into Dugout. Ye I said it was unbelievable. Have any...

If a pitch hits an umpire is it a dead ball ? No injuries occurred on play.
