Good call?

[Dakota]

Assuming the catcher was not also obstructing (leading to the short slide)...

Knocking the runner down gives her quite a bit of leeway, but the chances are if the ball was fielded cleanly, she would not have made home anyway, so this was a good call.

Pausing for a second at 3rd probably did not "make up" for the delay in her progress from being knocked down, but the short throw to home from F8 (or whoever) most likely means she would have only been protected to 3rd.

HTBT for sure. Sounds like a good call.
