We wore this out a few months ago.

Abel on 3B, 1 out. Baker hits a fly to F7. Abel tags up after the catch and tries to score. The ODB moves to a point about 15 feet behind home plate, and indicates to Abel that he should slide. The throw bounces through F2 and hits the ODB a split second before Abel slides across the plate.

Ruling: Blocked ball. Send Abel back to 3B.

Can't wait to make that call.
