By rule, a batter becomes a batter-runner when the at-bat is complete and not put out; put the ball in play, received ball 4, or uncaught third strike (proper conditions).

By rule, batter-runners can overrun first base without jeopardy unless making an attempt to second base.

So why would some batter-runners NOT have the same rights as other batter-runners? It a foolish and illogical exception in NFHS baseball, IMO. Consistency should be the goal of like and similar rules.
