 FAIR: After the opposing team in the finals of the tournament let  Nelson get a hit, when rounding third base, he does not touch it on  his way to home plate. Because of this, the home run should not have  counted. However, in order for the base runner to be called out, the  opposing team must challenge the play. The proper procedure would be  before throwing the next pitch, throw the ball to the base that was  missed. Then announcing to the umpire that the base runner failed to  touch the base. If this is not done before the next pitch then the  base runner is safe.
