This happened to a friend of mine, who was calling the plate in Bryan, TX at the ASA 14-U B Nationals.
The batter hits a grounder that strikes 3rd base, bounces off and rolls into the dugout. My friend ruled Fair Ball, Dead Ball, and awarded 2nd to the batter. His UIC told him he blew it, that that should have been a foul ball.
Now, Rule 1, Fair Ball, E says if the ball strikes 1st 2nd or 3rd base, it's a fair ball. Is there something I'm missing here?
