Not sure why you would need to know how much time ran off from the time it was touched to when it went OOB. The only time you might have to reset the clock on a jump ball is if the ball is tossed and neither player touches the ball & the clock starts to run. You would re jump with a reset clock then.
Interesting....I suppose I always read that section as starting the clock when the "tapped" ball is legally touched, not the "tossed" ball...honestly this seems inconsistent to me with articles 3 & 4...
