give reference please. The note that I found in 8-4-2p seems to differ from your statement above.
I see that in reference to a BR but not for any other runner.
Also I found a case play 8.4.2X which states "when R2 began leaving the field, he should be considred as having abandoned his effort to return or advance and shall be declared out."
This states nothing about dead ball territory.
But I might have missed something so if you could provide me the info I'd be thankful.
thanks
