 How can you award runners and a batter any bases on a DEAD ball leaving the field of play?
 
 The second the pitched ball hits the batter, it is dead.  I don't care if it bounces to Mars, you cannot award any more bases other than what is permissible for a HBP, even in Federation ball.

D'oh!  Okay, I'm awake now.  What's a helment?
