"My son lost track of the ball and thought he had "time" and the catcher stepped up about the time Holden was running across the plate." From this description (HTBT), it seems this was nothing more than a "train wreck". F2 was NOT blocking the plate, but rather had to make the catch and lunge at the runner. My call, "SAFE".

Since F2 did not have possession, and was not blocking the plate, NO ejection.

To "showboat" when ejecting anyone, much less a youngster is BUSH. He watches TOO MUCH ML Baseball on TV.
