[iRoger,

If a batted ball is in flight near the line when a ball from an adjoining field contacts it, does it make a difference if you thought it might come back fair or do you make your ruling based on the position of the ball when it was contacted by something other than the ground?

Mike,
Apples and oranges. What we are talking about is a live batted ball intentionally touched by by a player(or her detached equipment)participating in the game.(Exactly what is covered in other Fed rules.) The ball from the ajoining field or the bird flying by is very different. (And there are varying interpertations on the bird, as I recall!)

Again, I'm not attacking any official interps. Just proposing an argument for any codes without an interp.

Does ASA have a play on this point?
