So with a base on balls, wouldn't this be the same thing.
Runs scores. Improper batter out on proper appeal.
Also FED has any runner advancing on a balk, wild pitch, passed ball, or steal while the improper batter is at bat is legal.
Should be the same in OBR.  |
The only way the run would score on an advance unrelated to the improper batters advance to first would be with less than two outs. This play has two outs and no run can score if the third out is made before the batter obtains first base. No run scores on this play.
