CecilOne said: Of course, a runner can "turn right" 270 degrees and still run toward 2nd, so umpire judgement and alertness is a factor
This is true except when the pitcher has the ball in the circle before the runner reaches 1st base, usually after a walk or a dropped 3rd strike, but it could apply to a fair batted ball too.
