No problem with "sliding" past first as opposed to running. You also bought into one of the myths of baseball--turning to second. The rule is he has to advance towards second. Doesn't matter which way he turns, so long as he comes mostly directly back to first. But if he rounds first or moves towards second with any intent, even just checking his options, now he's fair game. Level, or baseball vs. softball doesn't matter.

BTW--GO CUBBIES!
