Unfortunately, now I'm confused. In my example, the throw didn't get past the fielder. So was touching the orange base legal because the throw was still "errant," that is, the fielder had to leave the base to prevent it from getting by?

Grey,
Sorry, I read your post as I have learned to read the rule. When you stated that the throw pulled F1 into foul territory, I
assumed you meant that the same as I've been instructed to interpret the rule.
That would be a pretty neat "technical" trick to step off the base in foul territory to catch a ball and then just tag the colored portion. You don't think that would create too many arguments, do you?
