B1 gets a single on 1st pitch.

Defense appeals BOO. B2 out, all outs earned are still out, so half inning is over - except for Fed.
I'm just waiting for this one to happen in one of my games........

It could only be in ASA. Fed and NCAA won't let you get that many outs on one BOO. (But I'll take as many as I can get.)

When the first batter of an inning makes an out on the first pitch, I tell the catcher that if she gets 3 outs on 3 pitches that I'll buy her a pack of Skittles. I've bought a few over the years -- including once in a college game.
