8-4-2p NOTE Any runner, after reaching first base, who leaves the baseline heading FOR THE DUGOUT or his defensive position believing that there is no further play, shall be decleared out ....
Case book has one reference 8.4.2 Situation D in (a) runner only heads for the team bench in (b), he leaves the field for the team bench.
BZ, I think waiting until runner is in DBT is a stretch, and would be difficult to defend within the FED rules.
