The OP indicated that it was a close play difficult to call due to the fact that the foot was hitting the bag at approximately the same time as the tag was applied high on the runner coming into the bag. On that type of play I consider the slide or lack of a slide, how far out in front of the bag is the fielder applying the tag and attempt to see the whole play to its conclusion. I weigh these factors before rendering a call. With that said, I am always looking for outs.
