Recall that several years ago, the "orange" base essentially disappeared (became part of foul ground) once the BR reached 1B.

When ASA decided to change the double base rule to make it one big base once the BR has reached 1B, the editors of the book got things a bit muddled.

But, the only time orange/white makes any difference is when a play is being made on the BR at 1B.

Otherwise, it is just one big base.

Can this be proven in the book? Maybe not, but it is the interpretation.
