Base occupancy rule in rundown plays explained
The text explains that a base always belongs to the original occupant. If a pursuing runner moves onto that base and the original runner returns safely, the original holder retains the base and the advancing runner can be put out if touched. When two runners occupy one base, the defense must touch the non original runner to retire him.
