Of course, the defense can still appeal the missed base, and that might change the ruling.

(another possibility, of course, is that I'm mis-remembering this.)
In OBR, only the BR and U3 need to advance. I'll look it up later if I have to. FED it's just the opposite, all have to advance. Apparently there's been a change in NCAA and since I packed that in 2 years ago....
