While during a game the other night, with 1 out, runner on 1st, batter 2 hit a grounder to the short stop. Short stop with the ball in his glove tags second base, I called an out at second base due to force. The short stop immediatley went airborn, but the runner coming from first, did not get down to attempt a slide, nor, did he get out of the way. Therefore, the short stop did not throw to first base not wanting to hit the runner going to second. I also called the runner going to first base out. The coach filed a protest, stating the short stop have to throw the ball, which the short did not do to prevent hitting the runner going to second. HELP !
