It has stopped raining.
See Fed play 9.1.1 Situation C:
"With two outs and R1, R2 and R3 on base, B6 receives ball four. R3 touches second base and is then tagged off base for the third out before R1 has reached home base. Ruling: R1 became entitled to home base as soon as ball four was declared. Consequently, the run scores. (9-1-1b)"
The Fed rule on being awarded the next base is 8-4-3.
"A runner is entitled to advance without libility to be put out when: a. forced to vacate a base because the batter was awarded a base on balls...."
Pony is 9.5.a.
