7.08(a)(1) in part says:

A runner’s baseline is established when the tag attempt occurs and is a straight line from the runner to the base he is attempting to reach safely

So that means from the time Howard reached for him and he dodged to avoid it there is a straight line established from that point to the base. If he goes 3 feet outside of that line he would be out. Is that correct?
