The only thing I don't like about this one is that the runner has little option. Odds are the runner is already moving to go behind the fielder and the fielder's misplay places the runner in jeopardy, again. At some point, the runner needs to be given some type of opportunity to advance that is not predicated upon the defender's inability to play the ball.
