Apologise for my last post . Typing/spelling was shocking .
ASA and ISF wording seems the same so it is the interpretation of the wording is the difference .
In this case the runner say was obstructed in our judgement 4 steps ie would have made another 4 steps if not obstructed ,from 1st to 2nd thenif she/he was put out within 4 steps from 3rd I would give her safe but not 1/2 way between . This is also my point as to an early assumption of where the runner would get to ( how fast is the runner - some 3 baggers are only 2 baggers for others ) so we work out the step philosophy .
So in this scenario .
Obs of 4 steps say then obs of another4 steps between 2nd and third (these can be added ) now if the ruuner rounds 3rd and is thrown out or tagged within 8 steps of home we give her home .
However we dont know where she would have been tagged out so we cant call that one .
She made a decision to return to 3rd and as she had already attained that base originally without being put obst is cancelled . She is now in jeopardy and is out if tagged .
I hope this clarifies my interpretation and remember it is interpretation of what is played under ISF rules in New Zealand .
Interested to hear from Antonella and Dutchmike .
Softballjunky seems to get my drift .
