what about running over the catcher when he is in your way on a tag play at home?? if you go around him either way, you could be called for running out of the baseline, so the only thing you can do is run over the catcher blocking the plate, right? that is what i thought yesterday and i got ejected from the game and a 1-game suspension in addition to that. the umpire told me that "they may do that in the majors, but you can't do it in high school". i didnt want to argue back and risk extending my susupension, but wasn't that my only choice, being that the catcher is in the baseline, and i can't run outside the baseline?? somebody please clarify this for me
p.s. we are using nfhs rules
EDIT-i wanted to add something-afterwards the umpire told me that i must slide on every play at home, but how can i do that with the catcher blocking it??? am i supposed to slide into the catcher's knee??
