(A) Is it in there?
(B) If a runner does NOT slide at 2B as the defese is attempting to turn a DP and the "non-slide" alters the throw to first - can the runner at first be called out via the "interference" by the runner that did not slide?



FED rule 8-4-2b

NOTE: Runners are NEVER required to slide , but if a runner ELECTS to slide, the slide must be legal (FED rule 2-32-1,2)

As Marty states, there is no must slide rule anywhere.
