12u softball game today. Catcher catches the ball with runner on second. Batter steps out of the box as the catcher goes to throw to third. Catcher bumps into the batter with her arm as she goes to throw because the catcher also stepped back to throw like she is supposed to to clear a batter who is supposed to be in the box. Umpire tosses the catcher and says no contact allowed. I don’t have a video because I was just a casual observer after my daughters team had lost but can tell you that the catcher did absolutely everything right. We alerted the tournament director and the uic so that they could discuss the situation with the umpire and make sure he was clear on the play.
