2. Playing terms and definitions, 16. Foul, Foul Tip, A1. A foul is a batted ball, C. That first falls on foul territorty
beyond first or third base. That is my INTERP, what is yours?
Bat is not hat, mitt, or helmet. I would like to know why you consider what 2.16.1.C scenario is ruled foul by reason of a deflection?
Deflection from wind or pebble, Foul.
Deflection from hat, mitt, or helmet, Fair.
