how many outs do you have?

No outs, runner on 3rd, 3-2 count on batter, on the pitch R1 at 3 steals for home, strike 3 is dropped by F2,* R1 sees she will be put out at home runs back to 3rd and gets caught in a run-down, Batter enters the dugout, R1 is then tagged out by F5. How many outs are there? ASA? NFHS?

Unless I'm missing something, this seems pretty straightforward. I can't imagine what you may be thinking that would lead to any other conclusion but two outs.

8-2-4 Penalty The ball is dead and the runner(s) must return to the last base touched at the time of the infraction.

That's under EXCEPTION. It is listed as EFFECT Section 2D-H, and is listed after rule H on p. 86.

So in slow pitch if there is a force and this happens, the ball is live. Is that what the exception is saying?

What is the (Slow Pitch) right next to the exception then under D?

As for the ball being dead, the last case book I have access to is from 2007 and in every instance in the case book for fast pitch when a player enters the team area it indicates the ball remains live. Have they changed the rule in the book since 2007?

It is to allow for HRs where the batter-runner is not required to run the bases, but simply go to the dugout.

The rule itself is a bad rule. And we've had this discussion before where it could deprive the defense of effecting additional outs on the play.

And, again, there was a proposal a few years back to keep the ball live that was summarily dismissed by the committees.
