Runner On Base

I was wondering if anybody knows why when a runner is hit with a batted ball while on base under NFHS she is not out? Is it because of the smaller field?

which league is she out in?

I only do ASA and Fed.. not out. I dont know why thats a rule anymore than why there are 3 strikes and not 5.. but its a ball rule..

Not sure when a runner on base that is hit with a ball is ever out? USSSA ISA?

The poster isn't talking softball associations here. S/he is comparing it to baseball, and you know how I feel about that

Softball field is not SMALLER (than ... what??).
Softball field is just perfect like it is.

They don't stay on the base in that game. That's why the games last soooo stinking long!
