Base running award...
NFHS
PLAY: R1 is on first when B1 hits the ball to deep center field. R1, moving on the pitch, thinks the ball will not be caught. After rounding third, he realizes the ball was caught. R1 retouches third and is heading for second, but has not yet retouched that base when F8’s overthrown ball goes into dead -ball territory.
What base would the award be determined from?
CB 8.2.5A states R1 would be awarded 3B.
Rule 8.3.5 b seems to state differently.
Last base legally touched would be 2nd?
What am I missing?
Tx in advance!
