Help me understand your reasoning.
ASA Rule 8-2D says the BR is out when the BR fails to advance to first base and enters the team area after a base on balls.
Case play 8.6-1 (referenced above) says the same thing. So does case play 8.2-11 and 8.2-12.
ASA Rule 8-7U / Case play 8.6-1 also calls the runner out for not advancing and entering the dugout on a BOB. There is no other case play that I could find that addresses this situation with 8-7U.
PS, in case it is not obvious, Mike, I brought this discussion over to this board so the discussion could be more open.
