BRD 2005 Pg 9 Sit 1. partial quote,

"EXCEPT:If the action is continuing and the tagged base is a "force" base, (change) the defense makes the appeal merely by "stepping on the missed base. (8.2.3)"

The Ex. play 1-1 discusses B1 beating out a infield hit and missing the bag. "F3 takes the throw and "casually steps on first." Ruling: In FED, since the defense was making a "force" play" as a result of continuing action," B1 is out."

Carl then states that, "It's likely the FED ruling will be modified."
