Drvestal,
The difference from baseball makes sense if you consider it for a moment.
In baseball the runner is not restricted as to when he can leave the base, and the diamond for adults is much larger.
In softball, the runner is restricted to remaining in contact with the base untill (faspitch)the ball leavees the pitcher's hand or (slowpitch) the ball reaches the plate. Add he small diamond and an R3 might not have time to avoid the batted ball with these new bats. That is why it is called the "hot corner"!
