Caught that too. One of the announcers said it. Practically speaking, I guess in MLB he's right. I've seen much worse done on slides and it hasn't been called. The runner in this case could have slid to the right within reach of the base and taken Counsel's feet out and it would not have been int. He went in standing up crouched as he passed the base. I don't even know if I would have had int. in high school.
