This is one of the rare times that I have to disagree with GreyMule. I believe the intent of 8-2M was to allow for a defensive play on the orange bag for throws coming from home or when an errant throw from the field pulls the defensive player towards foul territory.

If the ball goes into foul territory after a defensive error (such as a bobbled ball like in the 1st situation) and we allow we allow them to use the orange bag, the defense has gained an advantage due to their own error.

The second bag is there for safety, not to provide a second chance for a defensive play.

IMHO
