Scenario: One out, man on third. Batter hits fly ball to left-center field. The center fielder, running back towards left centerputs his mitt on the ball, it bounce out, however, he catches the ball before it hits the ground. The batter is out. The runner at third tags to score.

Question: If the runner on third leaves the bag after the center fielder touches the ball, but before the center fielder actually controls the ball, has the runner left too soon, or can he leave the bag at the instant the ball hits the fileder's glove?
