Then we may not agree. How can you not believe in something which obviously occurs?

Either the BR runs through the base or they do not. The only other option is stopping on the base. If the BR does anything which makes me feel I need to be prepared to head toward 2B, whether a turn, deke, even the dip of a shoulder, IMJ, the runner is in jeopardy. I'm not referring to slight movements, but something that gets my attention.
