Right now, I like my "A" answer, but I have to say that I could be convinced to change my mind if we think we have a baseline infraction.

When I watch it again, I think that I can lean toward a possible baseline infraction IF all guidelines are met, which they aren't in the video, but the question creates a hypothetical.
When the fielder extends his arm completely he still missed the runner so much that there's considerable daylight between the end of the fielder's glove and the runner. So I think we can agree that there is a gap that is equal to or greater than three feet. By the choices given, if we have a baseline violation, a tag is not required so you can't answer "D" if you have a baseline violation. The only proper answer if you think there is a baseline violation in this instance would be "C"

It would have been a baseline infraction had the fielder held on to the ball. That describes the situation perfectly, which is what the question asks for, and which is why B is also correct. C is a correct statement by itself. A is correct because the fielder didn't hold on to the ball.

On that standard, this runner is not even remotely close to being 3 feet out of the basepath. (Also note - there some codes where the fielder here has obstructed, as the runner had to veer when he didn't have the ball)

You must consider each answer independently.

Okay, but if you have a baseline infraction, a tag is not necessary to get an out. I wish is said "tag attempt."

Stop right there. You don't have a baseline infraction in the video because the fielder dropped the ball. There was no tag attempt.
