Does the run score or is it a timming play?

In NFHS it is in rule 8-1-1 and 9-1-1.

In NCAA it is 12.29

Why is this hard to comprehend?

Pretend the colored base wasn't there. If the ball hit the corner of the white base or bounded over it, you'd call a fair ball, right? Why does it matter if there's some safety bag there? It doesn't.

Rulebook right, ballfield wrong. Don't let it be you.

He is just saying that the rule book doesn't word it the way we all understand it and enforce it. He gets the rule. Just doesn't like the wording.

And if ASA would just add the words "in the order listed" to 5.5.A.1, they would have it covered as well.

Yes, it is that simple. Apparently, it is believed that ASA umpires are intelligent enough to know better
