The scenario is a bit sketchy, but let's assume that the runner is somewhere along the second half of the baseline leading to first, ie, the running lane. bob, do you say play on because OBR requires a quality throw, which is unlikely here where the catcher is in foul territory and the runner in fair? That is, a quality throw would have been to the foul-side of the base.

Or because if the BR had not yet reached the running lane, there is no running lane violation?

I don't work school ball, so I'm not sure about this: am I correct that FED does not require a quality throw? If not, this could be a running lane violation if the BR interfered with the fielder's opportunity to catch the throw, right?
