The ball is in play until the pitcher has control of the ball and is within the pitcher mound. The runner has to have run at least half way when the pitcher has control at team mound, in order to continue. If they are not they will be sent back to previous base. UMP DISCRETION
If a runner gets hit by a kicked ball the runner will be declared out.
If a player intentionally interferes with a play, it will be an automatic out. Intentional interference is decided at the umpire's discretion.
Runners are allowed to take one additional base on an over-throw (this is a restriction on the runner, not an automatic right for the runner to advance). An overthrow is a ball thrown, kicked, or deflected into foul territory while making a defensive play towards a player or base. If any fielder attempts to make an out prior to returning the ball to the pitcher, runners may commence base running.
Runners must stay within the baseline. Any runner outside the baseline is out.
Runners may choose their path from one base to the next, and may follow a natural running arc. Players "running through" first base must come back to touch the base if they would like to continue to second base.
If a player does not come back to touch first base before running to second, the player will be required to return to first base once the play is over.
If an out is made on that player while attempting to take another base, the player is still out, even if he did not come back to touch first base.
There are 2 bases on first. The red is the runners base. You can over-run 1st base only, make sure not to round base or you can get tagged out
Making a force out by tagging the base before the runner gets there. A force out can only occur if the runner MUST run (i.e. all of the bases behind the runner are occupied).Tagging a player that is not on a base. Tagging includes touching a person with the ball while you hold it, A tag-up is a requirement to retouch or stay on the originating base until the ball is first touched, if a kicked ball is caught. After a tag-up, a runner may advance. A runner failing to tag-up as required allows that player to be made out by tagging the player or the originating base.
