We had an interesting play. The second baseman fielded a ground ball and tagged the baserunner going from first to second. The runner was called out. Her mom is a professional photographer and has a picture that clearly shows that she is tagging the girl with her glove and has the ball in her hand pushing the glove into the runner with everything in contact. There is no direct contact between the ball and the runner.
We couldn't decide if the girl should have been called safe if the umpire had clearly seen what transpired or if the the fact glove was in contact with the runner and the ball was in contact with the glove should result in an out. We generally thought the ruling should be safe but no one really knew for sure. What is the correct call?
