Not if it first touched the ground beyond 3B... That's a foul ball, blue.

Too bad, coach. That's a foul ball.

Same here. Ball was deflected off a fielder first. Unless the BR intentionally interfered, it's nothing.

I called time and was about to put her back to first for making her initial move back to 1B, but partner said that was leagal - she was looking for the ball position. I wasn't happy about it but I wasn't going to argue with him. Any ideas?
