Did I screw this up?

I was pretty sure that wasn't right, but he was very sure of himself.

The runner didn't jump directly over the 3rd baseman on the play. His head probably went over the 3rd baseman's shoulder, but his torso and legs were out to the side and went over his arm and around him.

Thanks for all the input. As a newer (2nd yr) umpire, I learn a lot just lurking around and reading on this site!

Based on that revised description, I agree with you.
