I wouldn't call R2 out since he's getting home on the OBS, but if he actually does interfere with the throw and knocks it away into foul territory preventing a play on R1, then I might have R1 out for the interference. No penalty for an "attempt" to interfere but there could be in he's successful at interfering. Real time judgment call.

I have always considered that a ball that travels through the airspace above foul territory is not foul because of that, and a ball that travels through the airspace above dead ball territory is likewise not dead because of that.

I did the black duct tape thing and it just got messy after time, so I went the cobbler route. Very happy with the result. He just does the heel, not the sides. My other pair has more damage on the sides from shin guard rubbing. Those are my "mudder shoes" now.

My chapter called it probably 15-20 times during the regular season this year. A little grumbling from the coaches, but they all knew the rule. Wasn't a big deal.

I did the same thing with a cobbler to three pairs of plate shoes. Held up all season and ready for upcoming season.

Here's another statement from the website...

This is from the NFHS Digital FAQ page...

NFHS website states we will not be able to access books from computers, only from phones and tablets.

"Once the ball is in the infield and playing action has stopped the ball is dead." Playing action is interpreted to mean when the runner has stopped running. The instant a "standoff" has begun we kill it since the runner is not running. This encourages the defense to get the ball in the infield, but they also have to have control of it to stop the runners from advancing.

Use NFHS rule 3-4-5 to allow this. This rule is for charged conferences, but it's the same principle.

When you're writing a situation or case play you might refer to the BASES as 1B, 2B, 3B so if it would be confusing if you used the same abbreviation for the fielders.

Here's the 2025 FED "intervening play" interp... SITUATION 18: With R3 on third and R2 on second and one out, B4 hits a small ground ball which dies in front of home plate. R3, getting a good jump on the pitch, slides and touches home plate just as the catcher is picking up the baseball. R2 has not yet touched third when the catcher throws to first base, beating B4 to first. B4, while running to first, is out of the running lane as B4 nears first base. RULING: This is running-lane interference by B4. When the catcher makes the throw to first, interference is declared at the moment the throw is made, and B4 is out. Since the interference is at the time of the throw, R3’s score counts as he had touched home before the throw. R2 is returned to second base.
