d.None are correct e.The umpire should call dead ball immediately when the obstruction occurs, and award the runner third base

R3 is on third base and the infield is in for a potential play at the plate. B1 hits a ball sharply down the third base line. The batted ball strikes R3 while she is standing on third base. What should the umpire do? The assumption is this is a fair ball

a.Call an immediate dead ball for hitting R3. Award B1 first base and leave R3 on third.
b.Call an immediate dead ball for hitting R3. Award B1 first base and call R3 out.
c.Make no immediate call and the ball remains alive.
d.Call an immediate dead ball for hitting R3. Call both R3 and B1 out. e.None are correct

I got this question wrong on the NFHS test:

Knee and ankle braces that are unaltered from the manufacturer's original design/production are permitted if all exposed hinges are padded or covered.

True or False


How would you answer?

I have the scored answer and reference, but don't have my Fed book with me. Will check the reference later.

3-2-13. I believe that was one of the changes from last year. No padding required if unaltered from manufacture

3-2-13: Hard and unyielding items (guards, casts, braces, splints, etc.) must be padded with a closed-cell, slow-recovery foam padding no less than 1/2" think. Knee and ankle braces which are unaltered from the manufacturer's original design/production do not require any additional padding/covering.

I'd answer true on a logic test, but I'd say they expect false. Usually I assume a question worded like this means. The rule is that: .... Which is false, even though the statement is true.

3.2.13 Knee and ankle braces which are unaltered from the manufacturer's original design/production do not require any additional padding/covering.

Only if you are saying that "if all exposed hinges are padded or covered" is not part of the statement. However, this phrase is part of the statement, which makes the statement false.
