I actually had the privilege of making that exact call in HOF Stadium a few years back.

Heard it from the entire 3B dugout until I told them one person for discussion.

Coach: What kind of call is that?
Me: OBS, third baseman
Coach: But she threw the ball to the catcher
Me: Correct and then failed to get out of the base path, runner had to go around her
Coach: But she just threw the ball to the catcher
Me: You are absolutely correct; And then she OBS the runner
Coach: But she threw...........

Guess he didn't like the smile on my face at that point in time and retreated to the dugout. Sometimes coaches provide some great entertainment.

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.

[RKBUmp]

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.

Which makes the answer false, even though the statement is true.

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.
