Detached equipment is something intentionally used improperly to impact on a play, and should always result in the minimum three base award.
Doesn't the above apply to batted balls only? Maybe I've confused ASA w/ NFHS. I thought if a play was made with detached equipment, the call was a delayed dead ball and awards of 1 base for a pitched ball, 2 bases for a thrown ball, and three bases for a batted ball.
