I think the immediately part is analagous to the rule in softball that once the pitcher has the ball in the circle the player has to make up their mind as to what they are doing, advancing or returning.
If the ball get overthrown and the BR overruns the bag, and then stops 20 ft down the line and just stands their, looking at the ball, but not making an attempt towards second. Then i think he becomes fair game. If he becomes stationary in a "play threatening postition" then all bets are off. If he becomes stationary and takes a breath, etc, etc. he's fine.
