The runner on base, then tries to advance, only to have the defense ready with a player designated to be at the appropriate base and other one to pick up the ball.
Play 2: Runner on first steals on the pitch. The catcher, with no chance to throw her out, throws the ball high into the air in the area of F4, mimicking a pop fly. F4 then shouts "I've got it, I've got it" deceiving the runner into thinking the ball has been hit.

I respect your expertise and absorb your comments in general; but if that is a PIAA ruling, I am skeptical if that applies to the rest of the world. PIAA has some unusual viewpoints on things.
