Mike,
Is theat wher the saying "When in Doubt, Call'em Out" came from?
Regarding Look Back, POE says "Immediately proceed" I also see "moving" in the wording but I missed "Quickly" so the time factor is not addressed. I could not find any mention of the speed a batter/runner must proceed to 1B following a Base on Balls as the Look back Rule is not in effect until the B/R touches 1B.
normally I would say "Use Common Sense" but if it were Common, we all would have it and there would not be this discussion.
