Little League, Catcher deliberatly runs over the batter. Sounds more like the batters mother or coach's side of the story. Better yet I'm sure it was a media announcer who seen it that way.
Lets see if got this story right. Catcher misses ball, catchers retrieves ball. Batter has no idea whats happening and moves up the line, Why? Because he/she was moving out of the box up the line, so they could let their runner touch home plate.
Catcher sees runner and first thinks that a tag can be made on one side of the batter but, after realizing this was impossible , then makes a move to go to the other side of the batter. Too late batter is in way . Trys to go the other way and who is standing there, the batter. Incidental contact. I bet the batter was so busy watching his runner, he never even seen the catcher.
Play on.
