Cheating or Aggressive Base Running?

[_MIA_]

As I commented previously I do not see this situation as an appeal situation but I do see it as an unsportsmanlike conduct situation that umpires can rule on without appeal.

Sure, but in that case there is no out..just an ejection according to @The Man In Blue .

There would at least have been a resulting repercussion. By the way moment ago just p.m. the man in blue to please post the unsportsmanship section of the rule book.

Umpires doing nothing made this worse.
imo= umpires failed.

( edited that sentence you copied because it is an appeal situation but beyond that I see it as unsportsmanship)

Yes the biggest issue IMO, (maybe) other than nobody from the other team seeing and asking for an appeal, is that either the umpires were either not checking to see if the kid touched the base or they saw it and didn't think it was egregious enough for some sort of unsportsmanlike penalty.

Well the one common factor in 100 plus posts replying to this is everybody saw the egregious'ness in this.

( regardless of how it should be handled)

She is wearing one..it is black so it is hard to see compared to the white one the other kid has.
