7.05 Each runner including the batter-runner may, without liability to be put out,advance—
(b) Three bases, if a fielder deliberately touches a fair ball with his cap, mask or any part of his uniform detached from its proper place on his person. The ball is in play and the batter may advance to home base at his peril;
(d) Two bases, if a fielder deliberately touches a thrown ball with his cap, mask or any part of his uniform detached from its proper place on his person. The ball is in play;
Would you consider a detached glove as "part of his uniform" and thus meeting the penalties described above?
