The ASA rulebook, for one, gives explicit directions in this case. The problem is that it is in a place most umpires ignore.

The question for the OP is whether the Canadian rules have a counterpart to ASA Rule 11.4.G: "When the batter ends a game with a home run hit out of the playing field, any runners on base are entitled to score."
