Friday night in NFHS contest - good game close game. Have R1 on 2B, 1 out B3
batting. R1 breaks on the release, B3 swings and her momentum carries
her towards 3rd base. F2 seeing R1 attempting to advance pushes B3 in the
back so hard, she falls to the ground. F2's throw is wild and R1 scores.
After the play I ask defensive coach for a new catcher because I am
ejecting F1 for malicious [behavior] contact. Defensive coach says dead
ball should have been called because of the interference and the
runner sent back to 3B. Explained to her there was not interference by B3, so
let play continue. She told me the old "That's the worse call I have ever seen
since I have been coaching."

What do you think. I know it is sorta, kinda, a HTBT play,
however, have s'plained it as it happened.
