Ok.........I saw all three plays........however, I was looking at them through a Dads/Umpires eyes.......

Play 1: Ball comes lose because of the tag........I have safe.....? Judgement?

If umpire says tag knocks ball loose......protestable......ball comes loose after tag......not protestable?

Play 2: Pretty much agreed........player does not have control of her body and loses the ball when she falls. No catch.

Play 3: Player loses the ball during a voluntary release......I do NOT have a dropped ball......runner should be out......

Maybe umpire judgement.........maybe not.......depends on how they word their response to the coach.
