I agree that the intent of the rule is to have a pitch that is at least around the batter when she swings at it. As stated in ASA it does not have to be a hittable pitch. As Irish has stated it could be ruled an illegal (IMO it would not) but then we would have to award each runner the next base. In all seriousness what would you do in this situation? If you allow the D3K you have a batter getting 1st if you call it illegal with a runner on 3rd you may have just scored the winning run to protect from a batter getting 1st.
Ain't it funny how such an "easy question" can spark such a good debate??
