It's not in a 2003 printed edition.
It is in the 2007 OBR rules downloaded from the interwebs.

BS?
Which article are you referring to? Neyer's? King and Kim's?
Would mind pointing out a couple of instances of BS in either article?

But he did address the error in nopachunts' post, which is why he quoted nopachunts.
Also, FED does provide a definite answer, as noted in post #6

Conversely, I don't find anything in the MLBUM (see 3.2) that contradicts OBR 6.07(b). And UmpTTS43's "take" is simply wrong. Here's the rule:
(b) When an improper batter becomes a runner or is...

Good job? It was expressed simply, but UmpTTS43's opinion does not square with the MLBUM, nor OBR rule 6.07B, nor of course with JR.

No, once the fielder had the opportunity to throw and doesn't, the act of fielding a batted ball is over, and the fielder loses his protection.

Where we seem to differ here is the meaning of "overrun or overslide". IMO, in the context of this rule, these are not synonyms for "went past". Instead, the runner needs to be trying to reach 1st...

Bluehair,
What? That wasn't a good enough throw? It was easily catchable if it hadn't hit the runner, and that's all that is required regarding the throw.

Sigh....
Yes folks, I know we aren't looking at F3's feet at the time of the pitch. That's why it doesn't matter if the FED rule is one or two feet in fair territory, regardless of MTD, Sr's post.

Well, if we're going to describe FED rules, if the fielder doesn't have one foot in fair territory at the time of the pitch, it is an illegal pitch (See 1-1-4).
