During a rundown, the third baseman, is forcing the trapped runner to retreat back to second base, has secure possession of the ball and dives forward to tag the runner who is attempting to dive back into second base. The fielder tags the runner’s cleat with the gloved ball but the base runner’s foot flips the ball out of the glove. SAFE or OUT?

If the ball came out immediately, the runner is safe.

Runner would be safe and the ball remains live.

Everyone is correct, Runner is safe. The runner did nothing wrong to warrant any other call
