Good pick up, DG. This is the way FED want's us to call it
2.32.2 SITUATION C:
On a force play slide at the plate, the runner slides over (beyond the plate) and makes contact with F2. Is the runner guilty of violating the force play slide rule?
Ruling:
Yes. A runner is expected to stop short of the back edge of home plate, the same as he would at other bases. Had the runner not made contact or altered the play, there would have been no violation. 2-32-1c(f).
Tim.
