Maybe I missed it, but in reading a 2003 rule book (it's the only one I have) I didn't see where the runners were required to return to the base, nor do I remember this from my playing days.
Any help?

What was the other coach's interest in this particular non-rule? Was the runner dancing around perhaps? Babe Ruth does not mention in their set of modifications to OBR, so this is straight OBR.
