Even though it is a published ruling, I do think it is illogical (bolded part).
Of course, the red part is no longer the rule.

The reference comes from what was then ASA Plays and Clarifications from March 2008. The USA Softball website doesn't go back that far but I've been copying/pasting to a file I keep as a reference. (Actually the last Plays and Clarifications was in May of this year. We've gone the entire summer without new plays to discuss.)
Also, "the red part" is still true for Men's Fastpitch and Modified.
