In FED you'd definitely have malicious contact. The penalty states that the ball is immediately dead and the (offensive) player is ejected and declared out, unless he has already scored.

As you described the play it's obvious that the runner didn't touch the plate. However, if you ruled that he already passed the plate you'd count the run, which would be subject to appeal for missing the plate. Could you declare the runner out or do you have to wait for an appeal?
