Zoomie,
Softball & baseball are two very different games that have some parts that look similar. When you told the BU what you'd do the next time, that pretty much tied his hands as to what he had to do.

In softball, a retired runner is not expected or required to disappear in this play. There will not be an interference call unless this retired runner does something intentionally to interfere. We do not have a "force play slide rule" and never require that a runner slide - although the runner is required to slide or avoid if possible a collision.
