In Fed, if with two out the batter hits a bases-loaded inside-the-park home run and misses 1B, and the catcher puts the tag on him after he slides safely across the plate, the batter is still out on the accidental force play, and no runs score.

Just how long the runner remains liable to be accidentally put out has been disputed on this site.

I have been reading Warren Wilson's installments on Nick Bremigan's view of a force play, but I can't see where in Bremigan's interpretation the defense, after getting the tag out, can't still get the advantageous fourth out on appeal. Is Bremigan saying that if a runner beats the throw and slides past 2B but stays within the "cutout," he has in effect reached the base and any subsequent out there isn't a force? Doesn't make sense to me.
