[QUOTE=DG;6010833BLX seems a better position for runner coming home with throw from the left side of the field. 1BLX behind a runner who just scored and is in the umpire's way is not a good spot.[/QUOTE]

Since the catcher didn't move, Dave read this as a "block" type play (rather than a "swipe tag" type play). 1BLX is proper for the block.
