"No! He's safe! (signal safe) And you (point to fielder), knock it off!"

probably follow it up with a "Time" right after your "safe" call/signal.

No, why? He'll be back on the base in 1 second. Do you call time to allow a runner who has legally overrun 1B to get back on the base?

I don't call time unless I absolutely have to.

No I don't. If a player blows out his knee do you let him roll off of the base and get tagged out? Depends on the play...sometimes it's necessary to stop the play. The OP, might be an example of that esp if horseplay is involved.

I didn't say you were wrong.

Yes, unless the injury was caused by the defense. That's baseball.

Of course.

I had a F3 dislocate his shoulder and didn't call time until defense had control of the ball and the play ended.

in the sit with rollins the runner slid awkwardly and did not have body control. great call
As an INF I was always taught that when you apply the tag, you hold it on on the runners lower leg and give them a little nudge just in case they cant stay on the bag. I didnt see the rollins play, but it sounds like a good fundamental play, no different than a hard slide to break up a DP.

just my .02
