Hey blueballs,

If I needed answers like yours I'd go somewhere else. If you can't carry on a discussion don't bother to type a response.

I see your 3 posts qualifies you as quite the expert Dick.

If I was so wrong please explain why in a real recent post "fair or foul" they contradict your comments.

Where in the rule book does it say I'm wrong because I DID try to find it first.

Speaking ASA

It was a bad call (in all sanctioning bodies). This is a fly ball and has not yet qualified under the definition of the foul ball prior to being caught. Any fielder who has not yet had any part of their body in complete contact with the area designated as dead ball territory is active and permitted to catch any live fly ball for an out.

It seems you have confused this with the fair/foul issue. It is not the same. Read ASA 1 - Dead Ball definition. Your batted ball does not qualify.
