R3 runs into the F2 who is standing on the plate and dislodges the ball. A hard head first type of slide even though he never really hit the dirt, but there was no malicious contact (he didn't throw an elbow or extend his arms and push F2) I really think he wasn't expecting a throw and then realized at the last minute when the batter was hollering "get down get down".
You're contradicting yourself. R3 runs into F2. R3 makes a hard head first slide, but doesn't hit the dirt. How can anyone make a head first slide WITHOUT getting down?
If R3 ran into F2, without making malicious contact, he's out for not sliding or avoiding if F2 has the ball. If malicious, out AND ejected.
