On the play in question, base hit to center scored R1 and R2 is the colliding player. The throw was offline and up the 3rd base path. |

End of the game or not, it appears to me that the kind of contact shown by these pictures do not belong in softball, and the consequences should not be ignored. Having seen the pictures of the catcher after the game only strengthens my belief that the contact wasn't just a bump, but more of a football-like tackle.

Thanks for finding a video of the play. That is malicious contact and is covered by a the case book. Dead ball, out, and an ejection. Bad umpiring. No brainer.
Send the video to TASO so they can have a talk with the home plate umpire about what is malicious contact. Last edited by ronald; Sun May 31, 2009 at 10:34am. |

terrible... just terrible.
MC... bye bye coach running down the sidelines almost into the play... bye bye. players out of the dugout during live ball without helmet and almost into play... bye bye. sigh. it was so bad i had to watch the tape 15 times. then the player is on the news saying she 'had" to run thru the catcher. I know a lot happened really fast. but, the plate umpire... what a nice guy.
