A new one on the field for me this weekend

I've had dislodged bases before, but has anyone ever had a dislodged HOME PLATE?

A new plate had been poorly installed earlier in the week. It was not the type that is spiked or buried into the ground, but was placed into the ground similar to bases with a single rubber anchor. The plate was also at least 1/2" above the ground and not flush with the ground. In the fifth inning, a runner came sliding in home, and the anchor popped out of the plate and the plate slid halfway to the backstop.

Gotta love rec ball and the fields they play on!
