" He was in the baseline & if I avoided him it would slow me down & could possibly be tagged out."
That's the key here, you admit that you had a choice. If you had taken the option of avoiding him, I protect you. You chose the dark side and opted for a collision which I'm guessing slowed you down much more than changing your path. In my game you're out and possibly ejected at that point. The instant that I see a fist the player can start for the parking lot, I don't care who started it.
