Rule 5.06(b)(4)(I):

One base, if the batter becomes a runner on Ball Four or Strike Three, when the pitch passes the catcher and lodges in the umpire’s mask or paraphernalia.

If the batter becomes a runner on a wild pitch which entitles the runners to advance one base, the batter-runner shall be entitled to first base only.

No batter interference at home plate, followed by a “that’s nothing” when the ball rebounds off the umpire, and no runners lane violation when the balls is thrown past first base.

Comedy of errors by the A’s ... good work by the umpire.
