No, coach I "dropped" wasn't a friend...just a loud mouth. I look forward to throwing him out again

Head coach didn't agree with the call, but understood my reasoning...I hope.

THe only reason F1 was able to field the ball and throw BR out was:

A. BR slowed down so she didn't kill F1
B. The contact stopped F1 from continuing into the dugout
C. BR went around F1 (on the ground)
Call sounds good to me.
