It's pretty obvious you need possession before the legitimate effort, just as you have to have possession before you have a catch, thus a catch can only be made by a player WITH possession. The sticking point is the effort part. Is there a legitimate effort being made by the fielder in catching a fly ball to retire a runner? Legitimate meaning legal, effort meaning action.

I don't think the sticking point is the "effort" at all...how doesn't that play wrap up mbcrowder's question on the proper base award.
It not about me being right or wrong all I did was copy it from MLBUM...but now I think you're starting to make up things that aren't there.
