Yes, a baserunner is out if tagged with a glove holding the ball in the other hand. In Baseball, a tag is considered valid as long as the fielder holds the ball while making the tag. The glove does not need to contain the ball; it simply needs to make contact with the runner while the fielder has possession of the ball in their other hand.
What else can I help you with?
The question is based on when a baserunner who is tagging can leave his base during an outfield catch. is it when the ball hits the outfielders glove or when the outfielder has control of the ball?
when the ball is touched, it's officially in play and the tagged runner can run.

No, he must be tagged with the ball, either while still in the glove or with the ball. He can't just be touched with the glove without the ball in it either.

It doesn't matter. He's still out.
How does a pitcher use the force out rule in baseball to secure an out during a game?
A pitcher in baseball can use the force out rule by throwing the ball to a fielder at a base where a baserunner must go to because another baserunner is already occupying the previous base. This forces the baserunner to be tagged out before reaching the base, securing an out for the defensive team.

What is a forced out in baseball and how does it differ from a tag out?
In baseball, a forced out occurs when a baserunner is required to advance to the next base because the batter becomes a baserunner. The fielding team can make a forced out by touching the base before the baserunner reaches it. A tag out, on the other hand, occurs when a fielder tags a baserunner with the ball while the baserunner is not on a base, forcing them out.
In baseball if a ball is hit to first base and the first baseman grabs the ball in one hand and then touches the base with his glove on the hand that does not hold the ball is the runner out?

What are the baseball tag out rules for a runner trying to advance to a base?
In baseball, a runner can be tagged out while trying to advance to a base if the fielder with the ball touches the runner with the ball or glove before the runner reaches the base. The runner must also be tagged out if they are not on a base when a fielder touches the base with the ball in their possession.
In softball when are the fielders able to use a force out?
Hello. A force out can be used when the runner is 'forced' to move to the next base. For example, when there's a baserunner at first and the batter hits the ball, there are force outs at both first (where the batter must go) and second (since the batter is coming to first, it forces the baserunner to second). However, if the ball is caught, the baserunner may stay at first since the batter is out. If the baserunner is not 'forced' to move to the next base, a force out cannot be used. For example, when there's a baserunner at second, first is empty and the batter hits the ball, there is only a force out at first. Since the baserunner on second does not have to yield her base to a runner directly behind her, she must be tagged to make the out if she tries to take third. Even in a situation where a force out will work, a tag is also an out. So IMO if the runner is off base and you can tag her, do it, then look to see if there are other outs that could be made.
What is a force out and how does it differ from a tag out in baseball?
A force out in baseball occurs when a defensive player tags a base before a baserunner reaches it, forcing the baserunner to be out. A tag out, on the other hand, happens when a defensive player tags the baserunner with the ball before the baserunner reaches a base. The key difference is that a force out requires the defensive player to tag the base, while a tag out involves tagging the baserunner.
