OBR is, as is often the case, not consistent in its wording, and so the meaning of body and person is ambiguous.
But J/R is consistent, and its definitions of "tag" and "person", taken together show clearly that touching the base with the glove (if it is worn properly) while holding the ball securely is sufficient for a legal tag of the base.

Gracias. Now I will know why I'm calling that an out.
Its like when you are little and looking in the dictionary, and have to look up another word in the definition. A hop is a jump, a jump is a hop, and I didn't know what either meant!
