SACRIFICE FLY OPTION CHART

Intention to attempt to advance from second to third or score from third after a fly ball bas been hit must be declared before the Second Roll is made. Proceed with Second Roll and, if a fly ball results, apply the following:

Use the second (white) die to provide outcome on play:

If fly out is shallow:

  • runner is safe if one thru four
  • runner out if a four and OF is rated T-1
  • runner out if a five
  • runner holds if a six

If fly out is deep, runner is safe unless second (white) die is a six, or, a five and OF is rated T-1.

The depth of the fly ball is determined by the first (red) die. If it is a one or a two, the fly ball is hit "shallow". If it is a three, the fly ball was hit "deep".

The team at bat may elect to "play safe" and no attempt to score is made unless a deep fly ball results. No attempt is made to advance from second to third even on a deep fly ball when a team elects to "play safe".

Automatic Application: Particularly when playing solitaire, the game flows so quickly that the option of announcing a Sacrifice Fly attempt before the Second Roll is unused. The above instructions can pertain by eliminating the "play safe" option and allowing an attempt to advance from second to third to apply only to a base runner rated SUP or AAR.
