This means that if the ball and the runner get there at the same time, the runner MUST be safe since s/he was not retired PRIOR to reaching 1B.

As I stated before, though, many call it a different way.

Beat the ball, the call goes to the runner;
Ball beats the runner, the call goes to the defense;
Both get there at the same time, the call goes to the umpire! :D
Dont forget the adendums for clean/sloppy play and double play
:D

No such thing as "ball and runner get there at same time"...if the BR does not touch the bag before the ball is caught--OUT!! (everytime)
