Mo Vaughn is known for crowding home plate. He even wears a special protective device on his right arm. What would happen if Boston's big first baseman were hit by a pitch on a 0-2 delivery as he swung at the ball? Contemplating this baffler-- and many more just as interesting-- will be pure pleasure for the baseball buff. Play armchair manager or umpire and make the big decision or call; read about strange and unusual plays-- like when a non-pitcher committed a balk-and trick plays-- including two hit-and-run plays with a most unusual twist; and match up quotes with the manager or player who said them-- you'll have nearly as much fun poring over bafflers as you would watching your favorite team triumph at the ballpark. Answer: It's a strikeout and if any runners are on base, they must freeze-- the ball is dead so they can't advance.
