The LBR (and the similar leaving early rule) provide the runner ample opportunities to make dumb moves. We are not out there to protect runners from the consequences of dumb moves.

Suppose in both of these situations instead of F1 having the ball in the circle, the fielder had the ball and tagged the runner who wandered off the base? Would you make a different call? Why?
