This was originally posted in the Facebook Softball umpires group and the almost unanimous opinion was an out. I brought up the issue of the allowance for the batter-runner to run through first base without liability to be out absent an attempt to second base.
I haven't yet been able to find or stretch a rule that says that after a BR overruns first then returns, they have to stay there.
This may a good one to kick up the chain.....
