If that's what you believe, please cite page number of the must recent ASA or NCAA manuals. |
You'll have to let me know if it's changed, but the '09 CCA Softball manual pg. 181 says:
"...come to the foul line in fair territory and trail the batter-runner about 10 feet up the line. Be stopped in a ready set to see the play at first base. If R1 rounds second base, move to a primary position for a tag play at third base by first establishing your angle and then closing down the distance."
Doesn't seem to definitively support Bandit or Big Slick.
