The runner can run 3 feet on either side of the base line. The base line is defined as a straight line from the runner to the base at the time the tag is attempted.

Any runner is out when --
(a) (1) He runs more than three feet away from his baseline to avoid being tagged unless his action is to avoid interference with a fielder fielding a batted ball. A runner's baseline is established when the tag attempt occurs and is a straight line from the runner to the base he is attempting to reach safely

∙ 13y agoIf a runner goes out of the baseline to avoid a tag then the runner is to be ruled out. If a runner goes outside the baseline (determined by a straight line from base to base and 3 foot on either side) for any reason other then to avoid contact with a fielder making a play on the ball, then the runner should be called out

If the catcher is in the 3rd baseline when a runner is coming home and the runner leaps him or her is the runner considered out This is a 13-15 yr old Babe Ruth League?
the runner must avoid contact by sliding or stopping in Babe Ruth League even if he has the base path. The call will be strictly up to the umpire. If the catcher does not have the ball he could call interference, however if the catcher is making a play on the ball or has the ball the runner could be called safe or out depending on the sole discretion of the umpire determining if "contact was avoided by the base runner" --- I personally if i was the umpire would have called him out... leaping over a player is a very dangerous thing to do, when sliding is the alternative --- by jumping you take chance of the catcher getting hit in the head unprotected, or going to apply a tag and cause the base runner to go flying out of control --- RUNNER OUT!! if I was behind the plate
