NSA's new wording is very similar to ASA's pre-1999 wording, with the added stipulation, practically word for word from ASA, that any out made prior to the discovery of the infraction remains an out. This leads me believe that NSA has adopted ASA's rule, which allows all outs to stand, even an out on the batter. This is unlike Fed, which lets all outs stand except an out on the batter, and NCAA, which follows OBR.

It is interesting to follow ASA's changes. In 1998, ASA apparently mirrored OBR and did not allow the out on the batter. In 1999, they changed their rule to say that "any runner who is put out prior to the discovery of the infraction remains out. Then in 2000 they changed to "any out . . . remains an out." Now it's "all outs stand."
