Can someone clear up this then?

B1 about to take the pitch
R3 starts for home as soon as
Pitcher is in motion to throw
Catcher sees this and JUMPS IN FRONT of Batter and catches the ball

He then runs UP the line to make a tag.
Runner has no choice (in order to avoid collision) begins to slide, but as the runner is about to slide

The Catcher lowers his sholder and flips the guy who "could" have been safe.

based strictly on the information I have given you, nothing else, (no "what ifs" and was the batter/catcher/ doing ?)


Please apply a ruling in Adult Baseball (Strict ball)
and YOUTH baseball...

What happens? And in Youth Ball, what would you do if the league rules regard safety and sportsmanship as paramount!


based strictly on the information I have given you, nothing else

thanks
