Over on the ABUA site there are quizzes:

One of the plays is about a runner not in the running lane and the catcher throws the ball 7' over the head of the runner and F3.

ABUA says there is a no running lane violation as the throw was wild, batter runner is safe (all codes agree).

Ok, so as little as two years ago NFHS made it very clear that ANY throw caused this to be a violation by the batter-runner. There did NOT have to be a quality throw.

Simply asked:

Has the NFHS rule changed?

Thanks,

The NFHS gets many right. This is not one of them, IMO.
