Trivia for 11/7

[CPEM]

Foul, though there will be idiots in the stands yelling "but she is fair territory when she touched it." and sometimes those idiots will be standing in the 1st or 3rd base coaches box.

Another one from the "You Should Know Better" department: travelball coach told me that a runner cannot leave a base on a bobbled but ultimately caught flyball until it is secured in the fielder's glove. Runner had left as soon as the ball touched the fielder's glove and he thought we were vulnerable to appeal if the defense had noticed that the runner was already off the bag when it was ultimately caught.

Foul Ball ............


Where do I claim my prize??

 

[LPF4]

If my team is batting I say fair, if I'm on defense I say foul.

If I'm the umpire I say foul.

It ain't football, the fielder doesn't matter, only the ball and where the ball was touched.

There's no fool quite like a stubborn fool. Been guilty of that a time or two myself.

Foul ball. It's not where the player is when contact with the ball is made, it's where the ball is......
