@Corey Burnett - yesYes that is the rule a runner must stay within 3 feet of the baseline per Rule 7.08:

"7.08 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"
