Was the shsu runner ejected for the slide or arguing the call?


It had to be for arguing the call....the first thing he did was throw his helmet into the ground at the feet of the umpire.

The other side is what actually happens and I've never seen a hard slide with the intention to disrupt a throw to first not be called interference.

Typically in college when contact is made it is because the runner didn't slide into the base, because most middle infielders aren't dumb enough to make their throw from the only place they can get taken out.

It happens all the time in professional ball.

From the frozen pic I think you can make the argument that his leg was still up high enough. From the video, it looks like he slid past the bag.

Enjoy.

Sliding past the bag isn't illegal.

There's also a good bit more leeway on the side of player safety and sportsmanship in college ball.

Tough call for the ump to make.

I always like when people pop up 20 minutes late with 8 page old wrong info.

Yes there is. That's why the rule is different than in pro ball. And he still followed the rule.

The umps created controversy

If the umps didn't call interference and SHSU won there would be no controversy, because everyone knew the runner at 1st was safe by a mile. TCU could have cried interference but everyone would have known it didn't matter

Calling interference caused the controversy

Whatever, this argument is going in circles. I guess I'll go ahead and "abandon" this thread now.

Both legs into the bag, neither foot up in the air. 2B standing on the bag instead of off to the side like they are supposed to. That's a bullshite call to frick SHSU for the 2nd time in that game.

too fast to see?

jesus tap dancing titty fricking christ on a cracker

do you sports bro?

strikes off the plate are par for the course

holding happens every single play

fricking wrecking a dude with a late arse slide when you don't have to is going to get called just like a lighting up some fool over the middle on the football field as the WR is landing is going to draw a flag.

The slide was pretty late and there was a frick ton of contact. And we're sitting here watching replays, screen shots, and all kinds of bullshite to come to the conclusion of whether it was a bad call or not. Ump has to call it in real time. I could definitely see where that could be called interference.

Quote which rule he broke.


Actions by a runner are illegal and interference shall be called if:
(1) The runner slides or runs out of the base line in the direction of the fielder
and alters the play of a fielder (with or without contact);
(2) The runner uses a rolling or cross-body slide and either makes contact with
or alters the play of a fielder;
(3) The runner’s raised leg makes contact higher than the fielder’s knee when
in a standing position;
(4) The runner slashes or kicks the fielder with either leg; or
(5) The runner illegally slides toward or contacts the fielder even if the fielder
makes no attempt to throw to complete a play


In this instance the runner purposely made contact with the fielder, thus the correct call was made.

or this rule on page 77: this applies to runners already out (which he was)

The runner interferes intentionally with a throw or thrown ball, or interferes
with a fielder who is attempting to field a batted ball. If a double play is likely,
and the runner intentionally interferes with the fielder who is attempting to
field the ball, both runner and batter-runner shall be declared out;


Also on page 80:
(3) The runner must attempt to avoid a collision if he can reach the base
without colliding.
