After the runner, runs through first base can they turn to the left and return to first in fair territory without getting tagged out? Myself and another coach were having this discussion and I said turn to the left and return in fair territory because you, by rule, can't be tagged out unless you make a move towards second and they said that you could get tagged out just by being in fair territory. If anyone knows the an exact rule that covers this that would be great. Even better if it proves me right.
