So how do you score that?

The Barnstormers are inventing ways to end innings.

Here's one play you may never see again.

In the top of the first, Lancaster's Jutt Hileman singled with two outs. Dominic Ambrosini came to the plate and hit a line drive off the outstretched glove of center fielder Justin Singleton.

The ball drops to the ground, Hileman crosses the plate and Ambrosini stops at second base.

One big problem. Ambrosini never touched first.

The Revs appealed to first and Ambrosini was called out. And because Ambrosini never reached first the force out ends the inning and the run never counts. The score remains 0-0, and Ambrosini is not credited with a hit.

"I've seen a lot of firsts this year in this league," York manager Chris Hoiles said.
