The rules about dislodged bases pertain if a base is dislodged DURING play. You wouldn't, well I hope you wouldn't, start a game or continue a game with a base 5 FEET (is that what you meant?) out of place. You would fix it before any play began, once again I hope you would!!

Now if you meant that for some reason F3 kicked the base out of place after B1 hit the ball then B1 wouldn't have to run 5 feet out of the way to touch it.

But if you did happen to start a game with the bases in the wrong location, you simply make the correction as soon as it's noticed and play on. Sorry, guys... Blame the field crew for screwing up.
