				Common sense says . . .
			 
 
			
			Answer B.  But my common sense may disagree with that of the rules makers.  (BTW - are there ever any errors on these tests?)
 I don't know ASA, but in FED ball you don't call someone out for that USC act; the only USC that also results in an out is for malicious contact (and not then if the runner has already scored).
 
 FED does cover a similiar situation in the Casebook under 3.3.1.  A batter hits a base hit and is ejected for intentionally throwing her bat and hitting the catcher. A substitute is sent in to run for the ejected player.  So in FED, the penalty for USC is separated from the game activity.
