Good discussion. Thanks again for your comments. I might discreetly mention it to our rules interpreter at our upcoming banquet. I'll post whatever he has to say about it.
I checked with the pitcher's father again this morning to verify that the batter had immediately run to 1st base. (I agree that there wouldn't be much to discuss here if she had waited until all the handshakes were completed and bats were put away...) He verified that the batter had ignored the ump's call and had run immediately to 1st. I can see both sides of this argument.

A duly-authorized, well-dressed, highly-trained, highly-compensated OHSAA official stepped up and, in no uncertain terms, declared the batter "OUT!!" The catcher, who was taught not to argue with umpires, did exactly what she was supposed to do after the final out was officially called. That's their side of the argument, more or less...

OK, some of you say that this is correctable. How? Do you simply allow the BR to remain on 1st?
