B1 hits a sharp, one-hop come-backer to the mound. F1 gloves the ball instinctively, then discovers the ball is lodged tightly between the fingers of his glove. As B1 hustles down the line, F1 removes the glove and thorws it, with the ball still ldoged, to F3 in time to retire B1. Ruling: In FED, the ball is dead when it lodges in F1's glove; award B1 second. In NCAA and OBR, B1 is out.
Carl:
Did you come up with this situation or did FED? If it is of your creation, did you pass it by FED or did you rule on it based on your understanding of FED?
The discussion seems to now center on FED intepreter's disagreeing with the application of the rule in this specific situation, not the wording of the rule. So it would seem to matter if they are disagreeing with a specific Hopkins ruling or yours.
