OBS follow-up
SIT 1: B1 on 2nd with no outs. F6 is in set position not in the baseline, but six feet behind it, to the outfield side. B1 steals. As B1 is stealing, she is watching the batter. F6 also stays set for the possible hit ball. B1 accidentally runs into F6.
SIT 2: B/R hits what should be a stand-up triple to center field. As she nears second, F4 is standing about a foot off the centerfield corner of second base, to the outfield side. BR runs outside second base, touches the base but collides with F4.
(In other words, is it still the fielders responsibility to get out of the way of the runner, even if the runner chooses to take a "long route" to the next bases? If so, how far do you protect them?)
