Kind of wondering what happened that caused this question. If there's a tag on a moving runner, sometimes it's "hard" but necessary for any number of reasons. When I read unnecessary hard tag, I'm picturing a tag on a player that's already been on the base for 2-3 seconds and the fielder tags them unnecessarily.

My threshold for USC would be far different in the two cases.
