A rundown isn't the same as a force play.

In the other rules question thread recently there was a link to odd baseball rules questions, and I thought I remembered one of them to be about this subject.

If I'm wrong, then my bad.

Without having seen this, there is a decent chance that the umpire did not actually call the guy out, but the runner (like a lot of players) has no idea what the actual rules are and just dutifully walked off the field. Once he leaves play he's out. I just don't see an ump missing a call as obvious as the one described in the OP. Definitely not unheard of for guys who were never called out to leave the field though. Its not the umps job to call "safe" or to let him know he isn't out.
