That doesn't parse my logic meter...

Perhaps the ball just remains live until playing action ceases? Sort out the guy being knocked off the base during a time out?
This is not Obs or Int. This is rule 10. If you're using logic, equate killing the ball in this case with killing it when an OBS'd runner is tagged.
