OK, No post tag action considered when determining a legal tag. Per JEA, C2, Jerry and others.
The catcher took two steps to glove the ball in front of the plate. He then took two steps back to set up for R3 coming in on a non force play. That, in itself, proves total control. Now you see, clear as day, the catcher put the tag on the runner, BEFORE he gets to the Plate.
After all you have said about this play, you now say, show me the ball, safe, NO TAG. Wow. Is that a contradiction. I'll stick with J/R on that, post tag proof. Good luck. G.
