Thanks a lot, gentlemen, for the rule clarification.
Chseagle, you have no idea how much your post will change defuse how many arguments on controversial calls. Thank you so much for posting the situations.
So there isn't a rule that allows B1 to be an extension of OOB by stepping OOB?
And an other rhing, just to make sure I got this right. It kind of falls into this:
Quote:
7.2.1 SITUATION: A1 holds the ball near a sideline. B1 is inbounds & bats the ball from the hands of A1 causing it to go out of bounds.
RULING: The ball is awarded to Team A as B1 caused it to go out of bounds.

So if A1 is hold the ball with one hand and B1 comes in and slaps the ball towards OOB, but it was argued that A1's fingertips were the last part of A1 to touch the ball, it would be Team A's ball because B1 caused the ball to go out, right?
