My first game umping and I had this situation.
ASA rules CO-ED game. Runner is coming in from 3rd and picture has come to the plate to catch the ball thrown from shortstop. The pitcher has one foot behind plate and one in front of plate with body over plate. Runner doesn't slide and makes collision as the ball is about to be received by the pitcher. Do you call abstruction for the pitcher blocking the plate or do you call the runner out for not sliding. I called the runner out for not sliding.
Thanks
Steve
