Fair/foul call

[Tru_in_Blu]

Hi Irish,

What's there to emote about? Most of my post is the rules and case play. The scenario of a ball hitting the pitcher's plate and going foul would be a foul ball and the line drive hitting 2B and going foul would be a fair ball. [Both cases rolling foul between 1b or 3b and home.]

The part I would have erred on was the ball falling beyond the base line and then spinning to foul territory. I would have incorrectly ruled this as a foul ball. Fortunately, I haven't had to make that call, and in 30 years as a player, don't recall seeing such a play.

I don't do NFHS but have read here that their wording needs some improvement in regards to this situation.
