Yes, the defense has a right to the ball, just as the baserunner has a right to the baseline.
If they all came together at the same time: no call.
If Ashe is off of third moving toward second: no call.
What I heard from MA, FC, Cody has a right to catch the ball. Apparently, McGruder plowed into him, not sliding, but going head first into Cody's head with his shouler....... before he had a chance to catch the ball. That, in itself, should have had the kid called out. Anyway, I am just hoping, after he gets home, he improves, and has no complications. I hope his future is not in jeopardy, also. Case closed.
