When was this OBR rule changed?

Current OBR rule:

4.12
SUSPENDED GAMES.
A game shall become a suspended game that must be completed at a future date if the game is terminated for any of the following reasons:
. . . . . . . . . . . .

(5) Weather, if a regulation game is called while an inning is in progress and before the inning is completed, and the visiting team has scored one or more runs to take the lead, and the home team has not retaken the lead


I remember (perhaps wrongly) that at some time in the past, the situation described under number (5) would have reverted back to the last complete inning (and the home team would have won). However, I don't see such a change listed on the MLB rules changes site. Can anyone shed light on this?
