The way I read it ,I will have to go along with your conclusion. In A you can use either base on a play from foul territory. There has never been any mention of the foul territory by third base, so I would guess it to be obvious no play can be made from there. I believe C is also correct, because it says high throw, not an errant throw.

Also my 2 cents

Okay, Bob, I'll give you this answer, and you can give it to everyone else in three weeks.

The answer to question 50 is A. Don't read too much into the questions. If it wasn't brought up (BTW, Grey, the book is correct, it states first base side), how many would have thought of it?

As I said, I believe the question was one word too long and the responses are poorly presented.
