We're also taught . . . if a coach complains about the opposition on this one; you indeed enforce it . . . . starting the next inning when THEIR team is on the field. And make it dramatic! "You've gotta have your feet in fair territory!!!!! That's what your coach said!"

(That's assuming the coach is still around at that point!)

OBR 4.03:

When the ball is put in play at the start of, or during a game all fielders other than the catcher shall be on fair territory.
