What is this "right to the bag" you're referring to? Which rule do you think would apply here?

Quote:
In other words, the runner has a duty to slide or avoid.
Is this in the duties section of the rulebook? Again ... what rule do you think says this?
Quote:
Doesn't the defensive player have the same obligation unless he's being pulled into the resulting collision by an errant throw?
And this from the Obligations section of the rulebook? Huh?!?!?

Are you looking at Softball rules or Calvinball rules?
