MountainThunder Posted July 6, 2006 Share Posted July 6, 2006 In relation to HS softball, there is an automatic slide rule at home plate "if there is a close play". This relies on the discretion of the umpire. This slide rule was also an attempt to avert injury. Some umps will often motion to a player coming home if they can remain up to prevent them from a possible injury on an unnecessary slide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SomersetFootball Posted July 6, 2006 Share Posted July 6, 2006 Rule or no rule, still an amazing play! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baseballer101 Posted July 6, 2006 Share Posted July 6, 2006 Rule or no rule, still an amazing play! I agree this was a very athletic play but without a doubt it is a safety hazard and the player is called out by rule... :thumb: very cool though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
