I just don't think Bruntlett had time to decide to slide headfirst to the outside. It happened very quickly live (I was watching on TV, though).

Well, I'm from the Philly area and am a lifelong Phillies fan, and I think he got the tag on Bruntlett. Of course, I'm also realistic enough to see that even if he did miss by an inch or three on the play, it would be a hard sell to call the runner safe there. McClelland can put himself wherever he wants. After 30+ years of MLB, he's gonna see what he needs to see.

To those talking about crash rules in MLB, well, there are none. That's the thing.
