the baseline rule is a poorly worded rule in OBR and people think that the baseline is a line that goes directly from one base to another.

FED clears up the misconception with this in the rule book:

8-4-2-a NOTE: When a play is being made on a runner or batter-runner, he establishes his baseline as directly between his position and the base toward which he is moving.
