Tom,
I am sure that John's logic in applying the ASA ruling when Fed does not provide a ruling is that ASA is the national governing body of softball. If Fed interp's do not cover a situation, use the ASA interp.
I'm looking back through some old emails I have from John, but do not seem to have one that mentions the logic. I was sure I had one - but with inadequate backups over the years and a hard drve crash & death 2 years ago, maybe I lost some.
