It was nothing but a train wreck, runner was never impeded, fielder had ball before contact and there was absolutely nothing malicious on the part of the runner. F3 maintained control of the ball and runner was out. Suddenly there is screaming from the stands about runner should be ejected with a retort from parents of other team. .
Heard a very similar story, Varsity, which I almost posted. In it, the F3 ended up with a broken leg. Defense coach later sent email to all other coaches complaining about the umpires not ruling malicious. BTW, the F3 is also their #1 pitcher.
