Which section explains the rules around running the bases on a live ball?

• A. Base Running, Interference, and Obstruction
• B. Pitching, Substitutions, and Batting Order
• C. Scoring, Umpires, and Time
• D. Fielding, Equipment, and Safety

Answer: (A)

This question is testing where the base running rules during live play are located. The correct section is Base Running, Interference, and Obstruction because its focus is on how runners advance on live balls and what counts as interference or obstruction that can affect those plays. It covers legal paths for runners, when a runner may be forced or forced out, and the penalties or corrections that apply if a fielder interferes with a runner or a runner obstructs a fielder. The other sections deal with pitching and substitutions, scoring and time, or fielding and safety, none of which center on running the bases during live action.
