Wouldn't you be giving the defense an advantage
by telling the runner that by rule he cannot re-tag?
I'd stand by quietly,wait for a proper appeal,assuming
the defense knew the rule,and ring him up at that point.
Otherwise,the offense gets the base,and I have no out.
Maybe I'm looking at it the wrong way,but I do not see
it as my job to give any player information that gives
one team any advantage over the other.The coaches need
to know the rules also.....
