I don't know whether this is a direct quotation or a paraphrase. If it is a direct quotation, it is a dangerous statement. Though it might be intended to only apply to this specific scenario, using terminology such as "simply advancing to the base to which she was forced" could open up a pandora's box.

Whether, in my opinion, I agree with the interpretation, it is a terrible way to justify a call. I would almost expect it to come out of the mouth of a coach, not an ASA test creator.
