Dixie Softball Rules are vague concerning coaches in their respective coaching boxes. Many coaches in Dixie believe that they are protected in the coach's box on a foul ball near the third base line. Are they protected in ASA, NF, NSA, etc? In a situation earlier this year, a thrown ball strikes a third base coach and deflects past the left fielder and three runners score. Under Dixie rules a thrown ball striking a coach is a live ball, the defensive coach argued that the coach was out of the box thus he intentionally interfered with the throw. How do ASA, NF, NSA, etc handle this situation?
