Sitch 1 - how many times is BR allowed to stop? How many times did she stop?
Sitch 2 - Same questions. Plus - when a player is OBS'd, and not played upon, what happens, and what are her requirements?

Yeah, I though of that. To me, it depends how much of a stop it really was coming around 1st. If the ball is in the pitcher's hand, the runner clearly stopped at first and the play was clearly over, I would have called time before the runner had a chance to break for 2nd. If it was just a hesitation, then the play is still live, IMO, and the BR made only one stop on the injury.
From what I understand, OBS doesn't require a play to be made on the runner, just a fielder causing a runner to alter their path without the ball, correct? I don't think she has any further requirements if she's KO'd on the ground.
