And from the J/R manual:
Quote:
|
A runner (including the batter-runner) awarded a base due to a base on balls or detached gear (live ball awards) cannot be tagged out unless such runner passes his awarded base with intent to advance. [6.08a][7.04b]
|
This is under the section dealing with the batter-runner out/not out.
This appears to contradict Evans' book. Tim, let us know what you find out next month at the clinic.
