Looks like we may be agreeing that the sentence is just plain wrong, and to ignore. In this same vein, let's have a little fun with the NFHS Case Book that is somewhat similar.
8.7.1 Sit.A has R1 off 3B, F1 has ball as walked B-R runs to 1B. They correctly note that the LBR is in effect as soon as B-R touches 1B. The next sentence is: "At that time, all runners on base must immediately move forward or return to their base."
Whaaat?
