Text	[answers to correspondents:] “A” is running between 1st and 2d bases. The ball is thrown to “B” on 2d, “A” not having time to turn, dodges past B and heads for 3d not having touched 2d nor been touched by B, B holding the ball on 2d called for judgment, and A taking advantage of this again, slips past B, and now stands between 2d and 1st and soon succeeds in touching 2d. Nevertheless, A is decided out, although at no time has he been touched by the ball, or been 3 feet from one or the other of these two lines... Answer.–According to your statement the player is not out.
