Over throwing first base


Question
In little league, on an over throw to first base, does the runner get second base automatically or can he be thrown out?

Answer
Paul,

Two scenarios.

One: If the overthrow goes into the dugout or out of the field of play, the runner gets second base on a ball out of play rule.

Two: If the ball is simply overthrown and goes to the fence, within the field of play, it is a live ball and the runner advances at his own risk.  He can be thrown out.  He can also advance as far as he can.
