The runner has about 30' where she can run in fair territory before having to be in the running lane.
I know the OP stated things generically, but as I said, I'm talking about the vicinity of the plate.

I agree, the dead ball should be called immediately. But, if this happens in the vicinity of the plate, that is as far as the BU should go short of the PU asking for information.
