I will say that if the ball has cleared the fence and is therefore "dead ball" and a 4-base-award is given, if BR THEN passes R3, no violation. After "dead ball" - BR is safe and scores a run.

BR out...all other runners awarded home base.
per 8.7.d and 5.8.6(a)



Is a 4-base award a dead ball? Can't seem to find a reference to that.



BR is out number 3...half inning over.
