Welcome to the board.

Your question, which has correctly been answered by Dakota,
is one many coaches will still agure. "Blue, the 3rd base-
man was a foot inside the line, how can that be foul?" It
is the position of ball not player. I have had bounders go
over the bag then hit in foul ground by five to seven feet.
A bounding ball that crosses bag, then lands into foul ground
is a "fair ball"
