The course of the play in 2-22-1 begins when the runner is advancing to or returning from a base during a play. The ball is made live when an umpire calls play, and remains in play until the ball becomes dead again. This does not indicate the start of any particular play.
Thank you for posting this - it saved me from blowing my freaking top! What idiot would base rules from a movie?

Yes, him too.

When I was in California, I once had the opportunity to meet and talk with Robert Hays, who starred with Leslie, and he related that Leslie at times had a very bad flatulence problem. I mention this for no real reason other than it sometimes seems to fit with some posts around here.

Bob, I only met you for a few moments. But I think we could be friends.

bigjohn,
There is a case play that covers the OP, and it certainly doesn't support the notion that defense's actions in the OP would "Change the course of play".

6.2.4 SITUATION E: With R1 on second base, F1 wheels and fakes a throw to second on a pickoff attempt. As R1 dives back to the base, F4 and F6 run into short center field as if chasing an errant throw. R1 seeing this, takes off for third base where he is thrown out by F1. RULING: This is legal and is not considered unsportsmanlike conduct. R1’s base coaches have the responsibility to keep R1 informed.
