Another twist before giving the defense the entire bag of "jeopardy" widgets.

Who is to say the BU's original call did not cause the runner to slow assuming the inning was over and any further advance futile?

FTR, I don't buy the point that the runner covered that much territory in the time noted, but the OP is all with which we have to work.

FWIW, I am one of the "halfway" advocates when the ball is declared dead for reasons not of the offense's making.
