Damn, skippy, you did!!!

This was a clinic at the Annenberg Center in Philadelphia. Like I said, a few years back. Katy Kashow (sp?) was the coach of Penn at the time.

As the clinic was winding down, she came out of the shadows and noted that she noticed the umpires groan when that play was given. She basically said, "You will call the game our way or you won't umpire NCAA ball, period!"

And people wonder why I think coaches carry a bit too much weight in NCAA ball!

[ASA addressed it a few years back. ISF addresses it in quite a vague manner in 8.2.g.1.note. At least that gives the umpire some room to rule in favor of a runner forced out of the lane.

Anytime a play is coming from foul territory, the 3'/1m lane is extended that distance into fair territory and the players involved may use either base.

ISF have no such rule as yet, hence Merle's comment.

Softball New Zealand are proposing to submit a rule amendment to address this issue, at congress this year.
