He wasn't three feet out of the baseline.

I'm pretty sure he was when he ran off the field without touching the bag.

The replay logic goes like this: Utley was aware he was out on the field, so he had no obligation to return to the base and left the field of play as normal. After the replay showed that Tejada did not complete the force, the umpire has placed Utley at second as he would have made an effort to return to the base under that circumstance.

Seems like pretty ridiculous logic since Utley would have been out anyway if he had slid early enough to touch the bag.
