Brent - wake up
As you describe the play, the runner would only be out of the lane while his left foot is on the ground. So, if the ball hits the runner when his left foot is not in contact, you do not have a running lane violation!
Brent:
What are you talking about? Can I have some of those drugs?
Just because his foot is off the ground means nothing. If ANY PART of his body is over fair territory (whether touching the ground or not) he is out.
That is clearly spelled out in 7.09K note. " The lines marking the three foot lane are a part of the "lane" but the interpretation to be made is that a runner is required to have both feet within the three foot "lane" or on the lines marking the "lane"". Just because his foot is off the gound, it is not within the confines of the lane.
If we have a quality throw, we have an out.
