A) batted by white out of bounds at the baseline.

B) batted by red out of bounds at the beseline.

C) batted by both teams out of bounds at the baseline.

For each: Your call and possesion arrow direction.
sm_bbcoach,
To understand the concept of the replies, one must know that a bat of the ball doesn't change or establish possession.
Holding or dribbling establishes possession. [see Rule 4-12-1]

I understand that part of it, that is where my questions comes in. If white taps the initial tip; then the 3 situations occur, NO ONE has possesion of the ball. My questions is exactly your reply: No possesion was ever initiated, so are all 3 situations a re-jump reguardless of a batted ball by either/both teams?
