Let me know if you get tired of these things.

1. A delivery by the pitcher hits the ground in front of the plate and the umpire calls out 'BALL', but the pitch skips over the plate and
the batter slams it over the right field wall. Is this a homer?
2. The batter hits a pop fly behind second base with runners at first and third with one out. The second baseman camps under the ball, then steps aside and
deliberately allows it to fall untouched. The batter, assuming he would be an easy out, does not run on the play. The second baseman picks up the ball and
fires it to the first baseman who tags the runner on first, then the bag. How many are out?
3. On a hard infield smash, the pitcher snares the ball, but the force of the hit entangles the ball in the glove webbing. To save time, the pitcher tosses
the glove with the ball still in it to the first baseman, who steps on the bag ahead of the runner. Is the batter out?
