I stand corrected. In the definition of a force out it states if the forced runner, after touching the next base, retreats for any reason towards the base first occupied, the force play is reinstated and the runner may again be put out if the defense tags the runner or the base which the runner is forced. It doesn't say anything about having to retouch bases in reverse order. Thanks greymule! Did you call her out Dakota?

But, by definition, this is not a "force out". This player never occupied a base to which return and reinstate the force.
Why has anyone not asked if the pitcher made it back to within the circle with the ball when the player walked back past 1B?
