Had a JV HS game a few years ago where their first baseman set up with his foot and leg in front of the bag. Talked to the ump and he would not stop it.

They would not listen...but after my next runner cheated the foot of the firstbaseman, it stopped.

Read the rule...the umpire could have been right. The rule does not specifically prohibit placing the foot and/or leg in front of the bag.
