Easy as pie. QED.

I will agree with your statement, Rich, provided F3 is pulled into the legal running lane of the BR---which is not in fair territory.

However, because F3 must reach toward home on a very catchable throw from F6, yet F3 remains in contact with the base and reaches in fair territory, that does not mean BR can crash him due to no running lane requirement merely because the throw was not from home plate area. The running lane requirement still exists. The BR cannot go into fair territory to crash F3 to prevent his catch.
That IS a lane violation.

Rich, since you wish to profess to contradict the rule, is there ANYHING written you can provide us to review that would support your position??
