Let me restate: B1 is due up. B2 bats and reaches 1st base. Defense appeals BOO. B1 is ruled out. B2's advance is nullified (along with the advance of any runner who may have been on base), and B2 bats again.

#2. Look back rule --- Rule book and POE state two different things. One talks about the runner being stationary while the pitcher has the ball in the circle, the other doesn't.

Can you please state specifically what statements you are referring to?

Situation --- Girl on any base leads off with the pitch and stops. Then then ball goes back to the pitcher in the circle. When the girl stopped after her lead off, is that considered the one stop she gets, even though the ball isn't in the cirle yet or is she allowed another stop after the pitcher has the ball in the circle? Thanks, Dave

She doesn't get a stop because she is not moving. If the runner is stationary off the base when the lookback rule goes into effect, the runner must decide immediately which direction she is going to go, and proceed non-stop. Of course, if a play is made on her, then she can stop and reverse directions if she wants.
