Yes, the fact that under NFHS, a fielder does not have to make a "quality throw" to 1B has been discussed here before. Im curious about the term "fielded" in the rule because the NFHS rule says the word "throw" and we know that the 1B running lane and any violations are only on a throw to 1B, not on a fielded ball.
