This is what I just don't understand. If you are not going to worry about the other runners, why worry about the BR? That is about as stupid (yes, I said "stupid") as the organizations that do not require players to run out an over-the-fence HR (SP), but make the BR and all R advance one base and then sit down.

OBR's rule is much like jim thought it was in ASA. I'd have to look up FED again to know theirs for sure.
