Remember baseball can be a contact sport. Just because there is contact does not mean you have a violation of the rules.

Hope that helps

I agree with the issue on the popup slide. However, would you agree or disagree that any contact with a fielder on a popup slide where there is a potential second play is INT. I would think the popup slide would be enough distraction and any contact would compound the situation. Interested in your thoughts.
