I was once asked by a rookie umpire when to rule malicious contact..........

My reply was.........."You will know it when you see it".....

Dakota and Mike are right on here.......

Not everyone has the luxury of watching thousands of games as either a spectator/coach/umpire..........BUT.......most can pick up on a play where the runner intended to injure the fielder.....
