You make the call: NFHS game- Malicious contact at the plate?

I have this as MC, no doubt. I think the reason we still have blatant MC in high school ball is; umpires do not enforce obstruction. If the runner gives up, or takes a route in which he is tagged out, he must be rewarded for staying within the rules.

And because umpires do not enforce ejection for malicious contact, as in this play.
