Why yell? You can make your point without engaging the Caps Lock button.
Are you suggesting that a retired runner becomes someone else when she enters the dugout? Is there a rule cite for that?
The rules are clear that a retired (or scored) runner cannot enter the dugout, and then come back out to correct base running mistakes. But I've never seen anything that says once she enters the dugout, she can no longer come back out to do other things like direct a teammate to slide at home.
Seriously (and without shouting), is there something that says her status as a retired (or scored) runner changes the moment she steps into DBT?
