How can you answer a question without all the data?
But if you want an answer, here it is.
If, IMJ, the runner is returning to 3B, he needs to retouch home or have turned directly TOWARD 3B to remain immune from an appeal at the plate.
If, IMJ, the runner touched the plate and started directly to return to 3B, he has placed himself in jeopardy to be retired.
Now comes the argument that once a runner has scored, the run has scored. Okay, I can buy that. However, if that is your belief, you must hold that a runner which touches home can never return, yet the rules clearly state that they may.
Hmmmm.....where do we go now?
