ASA test 2004

[oppool]

I believe this year test has a question that the KEY for the correct answers are different than what is stated in either the text book or case book

Question 97. R1 on 2B and R2 on 1B with 2 outs. B3 hits a high fly ball to shortstop and plate umpire yells "Infield Fly Batter is out!" F6 drops the ball. The offensive team manager protests the umpire interpretation. The umpire should rule:

A. Invalid protest and the inning is over
B. Valid protest. B3 bats again and runners remain at 1B and 2B.
C. Valid protest. B3 is awarded 1B, and runners are advanced one base
D. None of the above

Case book play 9.2-1 which is used on the key reference which is the exact play gives you answer "C" but the key to the test says the correct answer is "D".

If the correct answer is "D" what is the correct ruling??

Question 60. The pitcher attempts a quick return before the batter is ready. No pitch should be declared by the umpire?

True or False

The correct answer depends if you answering for FP or SP the key gives the FP answer

Just thought I would pass it along
