baseline

[cmtsguy22]

A situation was asked of me the other night. Bases loaded, bottom of the 7th. Pitcher walks the batter, game over. The base runners all go to their next base. The batter goes to the pitcher and says nice game, whatever, and then runs and touches first base. Is she out for running out of the baseline? I told the woman who asked me no because there was no play being made on her, and she did touch first base completing her play, so she was fine. Please advise if that is the right call.

Thanks
