Perhaps I had a different picture in my head about what I was discussing with my partners. What I was picturing was the runner sliding with one foot towards the base with another foot going for F6's legs. I neglected to mention that one of them even said, "yeah, I'd go for his legs to try and break up the double-play." While the runners get their "choice" of how they want to approach the bag, my understanding of INT was that the defense must still be allowed to execute their play as well.

R/S #33: "Defensive players must be given the opportunity to field the ball anywhere on the playing field or throw the ball without being hindered." If a runner's leg is clearly not going for the base and is going directly to the fielder, hindering him from executing his normal throw, that to me says INT. I consider it to be the same as if the runner had stood straight up when coming into the base, effectively blocking the fielder's throw.

Maybe my OP and what I envisioned in my head (described above) are two different scenarios.

I haven't decided if I should call it from the dugout or the outfield. Apparently, both have really great views!

Screw green, it ain't easy being blue!

I won't be coming here that much anymore. I might check in now and again.
