I did not see the play. In non-pro ball, the runner may not deliberately crash into F2 in order to jar the ball loose. Depending on the severity and how it's done (with the hands, shoulder, raised foot, etc.) it could be INT, MC, both or neither.

1. Legal slide, F2 puts tag down, ball comes loose after incidental contact with sliding foot: I've got nothing.

2. Runner slides, tag is high, runner slaps F2's glove, ball comes out: INT, runner out, other runners return to TOI base.

3. Runner slides into F2 with spikes up to kick the glove, F2 holds ball and makes the tag: MC, runner out on tag and ejected.

4. Runner crashes F2 who drops ball: MC & INT, runner ejected for MC, out on INT, other runners return to TOI base.
