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.

Tell me you don’t know the rules of college baseball…….oh wait…..you already did.

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

this.  it wasn't that he didn't slide it was that he "wanted" to run him over "in his head" of course.

which of course is why it took 7 fucking minutes because they were divining "intent".

Just google malicious intent in college baseball.

It is a judgment call and replay confirmed it.

You don’t have to like it but by rule they got it right.

right, it had nothing to do with sliding which is what you said.  it had to do with them making some judgement call that he had malicious intent when he contacted the catcher.

If he slides feet first into the catcher and was blocked it would have been obstruction because the catcher did not have the ball and he would be safe.

The rule says you cannot maliciously hit any player whether he has the ball or not no matter where he is standing.

If you go in without sliding and run into someone like he did you are going to get called for it just like he did.

Case closed.

if the catcher is 3 to 4 feet farther up the line in the basepath does the runner have to slide?

No but he has to try and avoid him and you definitely cannot plow over him even if he has the ball.

By the way the catcher on this particular play was within 18” or less from home plate.

The collision occurred in the right hander’s box.

does a runner have to avoid a fielder in the basepath who doesn't have the ball?

No but you cannot run him over like the Oregon player did.

If you hit the third baseman that was in your way like the catcher was hit at the plate it would be the same call.

he actually starts to slide and goes to his knees because the catcher is out so far out.  he would have broken his ankle had he completed his slide into the catcher.  The catchers position stepping into the baseline without the ball gave the runner no choice.

the catcher also set up well in front of the plate up the baseline, early.

That Oregon call was fucking atrocious. Just give them skirts to play in if you’re going to be that soft. Catcher fully blocked the plate without the ball, runner barely bumps into him while trying to avoid a collision. What a joke. Every snowflake that got offended when I said the two bags at first would lead to this should feel really stupid today.
