He ran so wide of the attempted tag he ran back side of the RH batter's box and back edge of the umpire's box and then came back at the plate from the LH batter's box. Should have been easy call. 3' wide should apply to the attempted tag out of his path, not the foul line, but still, it appeared more like 6'+ of that too. No one seems too concerned, announcers did not mention and defensive manager discussion was mild.
