Or at least the fair lines, catcher must be in fair ground.
ASA and PONY both say 10 feet from the
rear of the batters boxes, so the
front of the catcher's box is the rear of the batters boxes.
I can't find that in NFHS, but the diagram shows a 10' length back from the batters boxes, even though there is no line across the space behind the plate.
