Does half your association also call FED baseball?
In FED baseball, a walked batter is not protected from overrunning first base and may be tagged out if doing so.
Why they make this exception, I don't know. But they do and that's the way we have to call it!
(PS: bbsbvb83, we were posting our answers at the same time, making the same point. Would like to note that this ruling is specific to FED baseball and does not apply to other rule sets.)
