Also, on the play I mentioned, there was really more along the lines of a 6 or 8 count. After a moment of my pitcher and the runner staring at each other, I looked back and forth to the field ump, then the plate ump to see which one of them was going to call it. When I realized neither one of them was going to I threw up my hands and hollered "BLUE! Doesn't she have to go one way or the other?" at which point the runner went back to the base.

It really wasn't even close.

However, since this is a judgement call, the only question I had initially was whether or not they saw the runner standing there. Once we established that they agreed that the runner stood there for several seconds, then I questioned the interpretation of the rule, and got a lecture from the plate umpire *lol*

Again, thanks for the responses. You all are awesome.
