Absent official explanation, I'd say that's your inference... FTR, I agreed with BretMan's post trumping your post.Not so much. Each of of the exceptions listed, and others by implication, requires the placement of runner(s) after the ball becomes dead for a rules infraction. In this case, the umpires "got the call right" by advancing the runner after calling the ball dead. They're allowed to do this under 8.02.
Does this prevent them from correcting erroneous foul ball calls or just restrict them from advancing runners? Seems like a damned if you do and damned if you don't situation..."Rationale: In the interest of 'getting the call right', some umpires have received information from their partners and wanted to change their call and use their judgement in placing base runners. The NSRC continues to be concerned about their assessments of runners speed and fielders throwing strengths/accuracy so it continues to maintain the long time tradition of keeping dead balls dead."
Agreed, much easier to fix live ball changed to dead than vice versa. Regardless, <stuff> happens...The lesson is do not prematurely or erroneously kill the ball.
