If the 1B or 3B player is stradling the base with a foot clearly in foul area, and the pitch is delivered and caught, what is the call?
Depends. If the pitch was in the strike zone, it would be a strike, if not, a ball.
If you are referring to F3 or F5 having a foot in foul territory, the call is nothing unless someone complains. Then, it's "Hey, get in both feet in fair territory." And be sure you watch the players on the team that complained, as well.
The problem with OBR 4.03 is that some people conclude the listed penalty of Balk is for the entire section. They are wrong. It applies to paragraph (a), where it is found, only.
