Been in this country long? Of course, you are going to be sued if someone gets injured, but more often by someone other than the player's family.
Yes, there is an inherent danger, but that does not absolve all parties from responsibility to play the game in accordance with the rules in a sportsmanlike manner. Nor does it absolve those coaching from not providing the appropriate training, nor umpires from failues to invoke specific rules based on safety.
Maybe you should know *** you are talking about before running at the mouth. That is the exact attitude that precipitates injuries and lawsuits.
Tell you what, you think it is the way to go, how about you straddle 3B, giving me the "clear path" to the edge and see how it feels when I dump you about 6-8 feet behind the bag because I want to run through instead of sliding. Please make sure your Medicare is up to date, I wouldn't want to risk being sued.
Actually , you would probably be called for malicious contact and ejected from the game.
