Mcrowder,

I agree with your statement...

"I have always maintained that NFHS rules tests for all sports are as much reading tests as they are rules tests." Also true for ASA.

I help new and old umpires from my local, a lot of them answered true. So I drew a batters box and stood it the front part, held a bat out over fair territory, had a one of them take a ball and show a pitch hit the bat and bounce in fair ground and bounce up again and hit the bat again in fair territory, with me still in the batters box. I now ask the to answer the again. Funny now I was not out and their answer changed.

At the state clinic I attended last night the person giving the clinic said true until I did my demo. He did not have a answer key. But said that the answer was based on the new penatly, with which I agree. BUT... oh well.


Rabbit.
