When I am out there and I call dead ball, I am going to err on the side of the batter and assume that she was in the box, unless she is clearly a step or two up the line.

Where did you get this "delay until the PU comes out to trail?" I can't find it in the CCA Umpire's Manual, nor in the 2008 NCAA Rules Book. I didn't hear this at the regional clinic in Dallas either. So, where did you get this?

I got this from an evaluation by Ed Crane at the Rebel Spring games as for the manual I can not tell you just yet I am at work and I will have to go out to my car to get the manual. I will asap and see if I can't find it. But as for me if Ed Crane says it so then it should be in the manual so I took his word for it.
