Will the new ASA possession of the ball stipulation for blocking a base have any bearing on how Fed games will be called this year? Fed still uses about to receive in their text. I asked our Fed interpreter but he dismissed my question with a "no one will no the difference" comment and then moved on to other "important" business. I do both ASA and Fed and am wondering if anyone else might see a potential problem keeping the two straight. Any other organization mention this at all?

A few years back at a Regional ASA Umpire Clinic, the clinian hosting the break-out on pitching was asked: "Our local leagues use ASA rules for everything, but pitching. They use USSSA rules for that. When are you going to cover U-trip pitching rules?"
The clinician just noted the ASA on his shirt and continued with covering ASA pitching rules.
