This happened a while back and now I was wondering what is the correct call. Runner on second two outs base hit to center field and center fielder throws the ball in toward home catcher catches it and the runner tries to bull over the catcher. The catcher held onto the ball and he was called out. My coach came out and asked why isn't thrown out of the game for milicious contact? The umpire gave some dumb response. So my coaches next question was what happened if my player dropped the ball. The umpire would have called him safe.
Suggestions?
