F3 makes catch and BR knocks F3 down.
R1 is 15' toward 3B and, when F3 falls, R1 makes move to 3B.
F3 went down spinning, but somehow made an off-balance throw off toward F5, where R1 was safe on a moderately close play.

BR walks off the field mostly on her own [wrist].
F3 is stretchered off the field. [shoulder?]
R1 is left standing on 3B.

Having seen what I saw on TV, I would definitely have called INT on this. Might have gotten me a malicious contact, too, but that's iffy. I'd definitely have INT.

Of course, there were baseball umpires working a LLWS softball final...again. the HP umpire was all baseball, and while he wasn't completely brutal, he wasn't out there to do softball.

ESPN is supposed to show the LLWS from here in Kirkland. Viewer beware... But some of these guys were actually ok. Others, well...
