That's different. Even though the ball is dead, MC ends the play immediately. This is a time play.
3.3.1 SITUATION X: With two outs and the bases loaded, B6 hits a home run
out of the park. R3 maliciously runs over (a) F4 before touching second base or
(b) F5 before touching third.
RULING: In both (a) and (b), R3 is declared out and
ejected. In (a), the third out is a force, so no runs score. In (b), the third out was
not a force play, so runners who have touched the plate prior to the infraction
would score. Please note that in awarded situations it is not the base that is
awarded, but rather the right to advance and legally touch a base with no play
being made.
