A thread in the baseball side had a side topic of interest. I hadn't really thought about it for softball - but wonder where the line is drawn in the various organizations.

In all cases, consider a ball untouched with a lot of back/side-spin that rolls backward and then across the foulline between 1B and home or 3B and home.

OBR says if the ball lands beyond an imaginary line between 1B and 3B, before spinning back across the foulline between 1B and Home or 3B and Home, the ball is fair.

FED (baseball) says if the ball lands beyond 1B or 3B (presumably beyond the line between that bag and 2B), before spinning back across the foulline between 1B and Home or 3B and Home, the ball is fair.

How far forward does such a ball have to land in: ASA, Dixie, etc in the softball world?
