P.S. base path is a stright line from the base and where the runner is at the time the tag is attempted. In other words, if the runner moved inside or outside to avoid interferring with the fielding of the ball, this does not count. It is when the fielder gains control of the ball and attempts to make the tag... this is when the base path is established.
