If a first baseman's foot being in foul territory is illegal (as under OBR) ... how does this differ from a right fielder being in the bullpen, unaware that the game had commenced?
Would/should they be handled differently?
What if the right-fielder was still in the dugout - forgetting to take his position and the game commences with only 8 fielders?
Isn't this really the same thing?
I'm just asking ...
