To me this is the most misleading and unnecessary definition in the book. It's a lot easier to explain this rule if you make a distinction between baseLINE (which is what they initially describe) and basePATH (which is a direct line between the runner and the base she's trying to attain - and is established when a fielder attempts a tag on that runner).
