Exam Questions #30FP & #32

[wadeintothem]

ASA 2008 Exam

Overall I found the test fairly easy... I'm not looking for answers but if you could help me think these through, I had a little trouble with them.

#30.. I might be thinking this one through too much.. in my mind thats how just about everyone throws and it is legal..but the wordings of the answers are giving pause..

My answer is A - legal since she didnt past the hip twice... but I'm worried I'm missing some trickery.

What am i missing???? (if anything)

#32 has me absolutely stumped..

The play is easy, I got OBS, B5 gets either 1b or 2b, and the R1 & R2 scores..

But that is not the question.. the question is, what does PU do.. I dunno, stand there praying my BU knows the rule comes to mind as to what I'm probably really doing..

If I'm plate umpire, I am expecting that that is going to be the call.. I'm not sure I'm necessarily in need of a conference, but it could happen, depending on how BU reacts.. certainly I would hesitate since I'm expecting the proper call to be made on the DDB.. I shouldnt be the one calling DB at the end of the play...

So help me think!

Thanks!
