Andy-
I was aware of the rule on the batter, was just wondering if, by practice, that rule was extended to the defense because of the difficulty of ascertaining where the line is. I guess not. Thanks!
By the way, the ball did hit the catcher, but question has more to do with where the catcher was standing when hit. She had come out of her crouch and was moving to field the ball, so it was very difficult for any of us to see where, exactly, in the box she was at contact.
