ASA fastpitch 12U

1 out, batter gets base on balls, rounds first and stops for a split second and returns to first. R1 is on 3rd base no other runners, if that makes a difference.

Is the runner out?

It is my understanding that as soon as the batter has the right to first base, she is now considered a "runner" and has all the same rights to advance as a batter/runner who just hit a base hit.

See rule 8.8.x NSA rules in notes

Thanks!
