One clarification to Jim's post
Since FED ball is played in 48 states, except Jim's and mine, I want to point out a FED/NCAA difference in #1.
In FED, it is LEGAL for a fielder to play with one foot in foul territory. 1-1-3
In the NCAA, it is LEGAL for a fielder to play with one foot in foul territory. 5-4
Even Jim Evans in his annotated says that it is not required that the fielder have both feet in fair ground IN THE MAJOR LEAGUES.
But NAPBL 1.15 still requires both feet in fair ground. But this is definitely, as Jim said, like the coach's box. Only enforce it is someone complains about it, and then doubly enforce it for the complaining team.
