Oh well, I guess its a HTBT situation. I felt the SS was hindered in making a throw to 1st. R1 slid kinda sideways in a manner to break up the play. I mean, sure it's softball, but that's uncalled for. I would've punished the runner and awarded a 2nd out... And no I wasn't questioning every single call, the umpire was very eager to talk to me. It was a man-to-man talk with respect. His answer is what kinda threw me off. "he's allowed to take him out." He said it really slow like he wasn't sure of the rule.
edit: thanks NcASA
