To clarify (I hope):
The catcher or other fielder needs control at the time of whatever causes the out. If it is a force, tag-up appeal, etc. and touching the base/plate causes the out, that is when control is needed. On a tag-the-runner play, control is required at the time of the tag and can not be lost as a result of the tag.
In the above case, does anyone think the runner interfered or crashed by "taking out F2"?
