Not quite true, Bob. Compare OBR 7.10(a), for example, where by rule any perceived tie should go to the runner - at any base.

1) By "runner at first" I meant "batter-runner advancing to first" -- I thought that was clear from the previous posts in the thread (or maybe I'm not remembering the thread correctly -- I've been away for a few days).
2) I read 7.10(a) as "a tie goes to the defense" -- a runner is out if he doesn't touch before the defense; a runner is out if he touches at the same time or after the defense.
3) Nice to see you back.
