Without seeing the whole play, not sure why she was in front of the base like that. Seemed to have plenty of time for a brush tag vs letting the runner slide hard right into it.

She didn't come in cleats up or even knee up to the fielder's calf, good slide. Yes it was a little late but she didn't come in high at all.

I keep watching Blue with the little hop getting ready to ring her up and then she sees the ball rolling. You can feel the disappointment. :)

I see nothing wrong with this play.

my take is: if the fielder (with the ball) elects to try and block the base, then they must concede that some level of contact by the runner is likely...
