I replied after Elaine's post, and then deleted my reply because I didn't like the way it read. It wasn't really a reply to anyone's post, it was just a question. I just went to my rule book and read some more. I think I'm clear on my question now. The statement that caused my question was the runner going non-stop from first to second on a walk, and then stopping two steps from second (after the pitcher has the ball) and returning to first. My original reaction was "out!", but that would not allow for a stop for the runner. However, I feel that the runner had already committed to second. I originally thought that would never happen, but then my husband (also a blue) mentioned that scenario to try and get a third base runner home. So I think I still have an out. I think.
