Need a little clarification

You know, sometimes some people just can't grasp the realization that at some point two players will meet on the field. Chances are that point will be where they are both trying to get at, at the same time. Like the base.

I think everyone here has throughly covered sliding or not sliding , or head first ....yadi yadi yada. One has even inferred that interference could take place?????????? Whatever.

Bottom line , when the play happens right at the bag, most of the time you have "Incidental Contact" and thats all. You WILL know when it is malicious, just be prepared to jump on those times and make the proper call.
