Question

Read each definition and all four choices carefully, and find the answer that provides the best example of the given definition.

The rules of baseball state that a batter Legally Completes His Time at Bat when he is put out or becomes a base runner. Which situation below is the best example of a batter Legally Completing His Time at Bat?

Options:
A .  Jared's blooper over the head of the short-stop puts him in scoring position.
B .  The umpire calls a strike, even though the last pitch was way outside.
C .  The pitcher throws his famous knuckleball, Joe swings and misses, and the umpire calls a strike.
D .  The count is two balls and two strikes as Mario waits for the next pitch.
Answer: Option A
The fact that Jared is in scoring position due to his blooper indicates that he has hit the ball and is now a base runner; therefore, he has legally completed his time at bat. Choices b and c both describe situations in which a strike is called, but they do not state that the batter has been put out or that he is now a base runner. Choice d describes a situation in which the batter, Mario, is still at the plate waiting for the next pitch.
