No brainer.
ASA Rule 2.3.H.1.c: "On any force out attempt from the foul side of first base, or an errant throw pulling the defense into foul ground, the defense and the batter-runner can use either the white or colored portion." I do not like, nor support the "errant throw" portion of this rule because it nullifies the purpose of the double-base. As I have always said, with the present rules in place, a safety-base isn't. But them's the rules I'm being paid to call, so them's the rules in effect.
