Yes it can
Any time a live ball is touched while in the cylinder or if on the rim or in the basket and the rim or net is touched, we have BI.
BI and GT do not have the same requirements. GT requires that it...

Error was made/finished
The error was made/finished when the officials allowed the team to rebound the ball. True, no team was placed at a disadvantage, but not because the 2nd shot had not been attempted yet. No team was...

The Ball Wasn't Dead
The officials errorneously allowed the clock to start, true, but the ball was live. You can't say the ball was dead because it "should" have been dead. This is where the error occurred. The ball...

The problem with this mechanic is that, yes, it gets the T familiar with going table size as we do in 3-person mechanics, however, it makes the lead go opposite table when administering the free...

Your comments? The rule? I've given up my interp. Now its either a blocked ball or interference no matter where the ODB is!

Not true
No where in the rulebook does ASA define who is engaged in the game. It is your interpretation that the ODB is not involved in the game. You have absolutely nothing to support your interpretation. ...

Yes, however....
ASA allows them to come out of the circle to direct a runner coming from third. At this point it is my interpretation that ASA deems them involved in the game and I'll give them some latitude, but...

Agreed, but
If the ODB is out of the circle directing the runner home, he had better be behind the catcher and any other defensive player covering on the play when and if he gets hit by the ball.

To add to what Mike said, the rule book has specific language regarding a base coach being hit by a thrown ball. It's a live ball if it was not deemed intentional, otherwise interference if there...

I don't agree
The words "and interference" in parenthesis is somewhat confusing to me. It's either interference and then we get an out or its a blocked ball and we put the runners back. You can't have a blocked...

I disagree
Based on the description, I'm not sure where you get this? The throw sounds like it was a poor throw because the catcher had to jump up to catch it. Just because he was hit does not mean he was in...

No he meant OBS
OBS is on the defense and INT is on the offense. The defense is protected from OBS if they are fielding a batted ball or attempting a tag with possession of the ball. However, if they are not in...

I can buy that
However, it sounds like they are involved in the game at that point. Maybe its just schematics, but I interpret the ODB to not be involved in the game when they are in the ODC, but involved when...

Another thing....
If the ODB is never involved in the game even when directing a runner coming from third, shouldn't we declare the ball dead and not give the ODB the benefit of the doubt?
