Noumpere - If you are pointing to my example in your #3 above I agree the BR was out at 1st base. Problem was it was Bases loaded 1 out, tie game bottom 7. So when runner on 1st was awarded 2nd base the runner from 3rd scored. Instead of inning ending DP game goes to extra's it became a walk off circus.

I wasn't referring to your post directly, but to 2017LHPScrewball's.

I wasn't there to see the play (obviously), but given that it was OBS, I think it was adjudicated properly. If F4 isn't fielding a batted ball, or doesn't have the ball, then the runner has the right-of-way. It might sound like a "problem" and a "circus" but F4 just might be the engineer who drove the circus train into town. You said that F4 blocked the runner and "it would have been close -- really close." There's not much "what would have happened" to decide in this play.
