re: Do the umps make this call at Alex Box?

That’s great. But the fact is he did in fact without the ball drop to his knees to block the plate. You don’t get to block the plate because you think you had the ball
I also think the correct call is what the umps did: call nothing
But if you want to review it and dissect the piss put of it like replay apparently wanted to, the fact is it was obstruction AND the runner was attempting to slide

Catcher was standing in the RH batters box prior to the OF catching the ball. He was preparing to block the plate. He was the reason there was a collision and he knew there would be one if the play was close. He was not reacting in order to field the throw. Catcher chose violence and he got rocked.

Terrible call, the catcher is blocking the plate without the ball!

I think that they need to let the catchers get run over. The catchers won't block the plate if they can be tee'd off on. This would make the game safer after a few casualties

b. A runner attempting to score may not deviate from his direct pathway to the plate in order to initiate contact with the catcher (or other player covering home plate), or otherwise initiate an avoidable collision. If, in the judgment of the umpire, a runner attempting to score initiates contact with the catcher (or other player covering home plate) in such a manner, the umpire shall declare the runner out (regardless of whether the player covering home plate maintains possession of the ball). In such circumstances, the umpire shall call the ball dead, and all other base runners shall return to the last base touched at the time of the collision. If the runner slides into the plate in an appropriate manner, he shall not be adjudged to be in violation of this rule.

A slide shall be deemed appropriate, in the case of a feet first slide, if the runner’s buttocks and legs should hit the ground before contact with the catcher.
You can’t lead with your knee in a slide.

Also, let’s put the “he wasn’t try to slide” or “it was malicious intent” to bed
Leaning back and tucking back leg. That isn’t how you hit someone
Mickey you legit are slow
He couldn’t extend his feet because the catcher is multiple feet in front of the plate

The fact is you are sounding like 10 seconds elapsed. Only 1 did. It was bang bang in real time. Stop using still frames on judgement calls.

That should be agreement for all. I believe all players did their job correctly.

Dude it’s a REPLAY CALL
It’s literally looking at still frames and such. On the field he was called safe. They slowed it down just like I’m doing and said “nah, runner out”

What I’m saying is it should never go to review there. Judgment calls are judgement calls. If it is reviewable it should only be in real time.

Imagine purposefully not bolding this entire part of the rule you quoted and bolded after telling multiple other people in this thread they’re embarrassing themselves

I agree he should not have been ejected. It was not malicious intent. He tried to slide, but by rule it was not an appropriate attempt at sliding.
Honestly, if he had slid head first or even a split second earlier, he’s going to be safe and remain in the game.

bullshite. It was literally a normal slide initiated at the normal time to slide when approaching home.

Pussified sports are the thing now. From this to the “safety’ base at first.
The extra base at first fixes the situation where the runner is required to run in foul territory but touch a base in fair territory. ‘Safety’ aside, it is better just for plays where the catcher or pitcher can make a throw to first where we arent arguing about interference.

Did this happen or nah?

I see two guys about to collide in .4 sec.
Posted on 5/31/25 at 2:19 pm to Mickey Goldmill
So if a catcher goes 15 feet up the line to field a ball the runner has to start his slide there?
Of course not. The rule is the fielder starts his slide at the appropriate time according to the base. It’s not assuming when the catcher is way up the line
And the rule you quoted is for when the catcher has the ball. Does the catcher have the ball?
