It happened today in....well lets just say up north. During ITB, 2outs runner at 3rd. girl at the plate smokes a grounder up 1st base line. Ball bounces off heal of 1st basemans glove and goes in foul territory. 1st baseman quickly gets the ball runs to the bag and steps on the orange side. the girl who hit it stopped and started back towards home. (should be out) the runners coach tell her to get to the bag, she does. when she gets there she is called safe, and run is scored. The protest is on... tourney rep is there and ALL 3 (three blue) get together and call her safe because the 1st baseman used the wrong bag. Protest is lost.
ASA rules. book says (8.2.m.4) On any force out attempt from the foul side of 1st base the defense and the runner-batter may use either the white or contrasting color portion of the base.
with book in coaches hand none of the 3 would discuss this. how can this be missed by not 1, or 2, but all 3?
