Let that be a lesson to not pitch to Parker in a RISP situation

OU was the home team in their first WCWS game, and we were the away team in our game against UF. Surely we're the home team today?
We are the home team

He was stumbling not sliding. Catcher did not have time to move out of the way. It is always the runners job to make sure that a collision does not occur. Had the runner slid he would have been safe no matter what because of obstruction. He did not slide and a collision with the catcher occurred, therefore, the runner is out. This isn’t the 70s, we are trying to prevent concussions and career ending injuries.
But he did have time to lower his hands and body and move into the runner to initiate contact with him while the runner was leaning away and trying to slide under the catcher. But also according to you, the runner had enough time and should be able to just stop on a dime and avoid the catcher? Lol got it.

Rule 8-7 is the collision rule. Rule 8-7 (a) 2) clearly states that contact above the waist causes the runner to be declared out.
2) The runner may not attempt to dislodge the ball from the fielder. Contact
above the waist shall be judged by the umpire as an attempt by the runner
to dislodge the ball.
PENALTY for (2)—If the runner attempts to dislodge the ball or initiates an
avoidable collision, the runner shall be declared out, even if the fielder
loses possession of the ball. The ball is dead and all other base runners
shall return to the last base touched at the time of the collision.
If the runner had not made contact above the waist it should have been considered unavoidable contact, and obstruction would have come into play. The malicious intent and subsequent ejection appear to be at the ump's discretion, but the runner was clearly out under the rules.
Yall need your eyes checked, the dude is sliding and leaning away and the catcher is initiating contact with his glove. The first point of contact is at the feet. It is a total gaslight to say he was attempting to dislodge the ball. The second the catcher missed the ball he shouldve been moving out of the way, not leaning down and into the runner.

No matter what you can not blow up the catcher. Yes the runner tried to hold up but he still ran over the catcher.
So a catcher can just stand in the base path and the runner has to stop no matter what? Nope. I will ask again. Was there anything malicious here? What do you think he should have done? The runner is leaning away from contact and the catcher pretends to have the ball and very clearly sticks his arms into the runner, initiating the contact.

Attempts to slide and sliding are two different things.
You can no longer blow a catcher up at home plate no matter where he is or where the ball is.
Read the fucking rules assclown.
You have shown your ass repeatedly on this topic. There was nothing malicious about the contact. Also the catcher is very clearly obstructing home plate and initiates contact with the sliding runner by shoving his hands into him. We are rewarding a bad throw and obstruction of the runner. If you had ever played baseball one time in your life, you would understand, but you havent. Stick to softball.

You don’t understand how rules work do you? No matter what a runner cannot plow through the catcher.
So the catcher can pretend he caught the ball, obstruct the basepath four feet in front of the plate, shove his arms into the runner trying to slide under him and leaning away from contact (without the ball), and that's the runners fault? The runner is running full speed and the catcher is obstructing the base path without the ball, what do you expect him to do a flying summersault over him, are you fucking serious right now? Take off your skirt

Proving once again you are an idiot.
Barely bumps him…..right.
Hey dumbass. Look at these two screenshots and tell me where this guy goes wrong. The basepath is totally and completely obstructed. He attempts to slide under him and leans away from the contact. Absolutely NOTHING malicious about it. Get the umpire's dick out of your mouth.

They ruled the runner had malicious intent. You are a complete fucktard if you believe that.

Well, as you just saw, in college baseball, you cannot.
Dude, it was obstruction from the catcher. They fucked up the call. Stop.

You still cannot run over the catcher standing up.
If the catcher is obstructing in the basepath three feet off home plate, yes the fuck you can

He was three feet from home plate when he hit the catcher.
What do you mean that far out?
He never attempted to slide at all.
How can you attempt to slide when the catcher is that far out and in the base path? Tell me you never played baseball without telling me you never played baseball.

this is the hilarious part. how is he supposed to slide that early? the whole thing is ridiculous but here we are.
Yeah, that's my issue, it was textbook obstruction and how is the runner supposed to start his slide that far out. Insane

The call was correct and ejection is part of it.
Sorry you don’t understand.
So the catcher can obstruct the plate and stand in the middle of the base path like a fucktard three feet in front of home plate? Naw, fuck that

Oregon and UCLA look pretty bad. Cant believe how weak the other side of the bracket is. If we beat OU, they will roll through these teams.

Same as with Pickens, I'd try to see how good they are at fielding bunts. Even if they know you're bunting, your odds of beating one out or getting on via an error might be better than swinging away vs. a dominant fireballer.
100%. Softball players arent known for their athleticism and excellent defensive skills. I would bunt my ass off against the likes of Pickens and Canady. You could get a few little league scores every game and that might be enough if you get a decent pitching outing from your starter.

You could give her to aggy and they probably couldnt even fuck that one up. lol
