Wright, though... did he slide past the plate because he quit on the play or because he was deferring to his understanding of the noo rools or something? Only he knows that. I imagine he'll be asked that after the game. It looked to me like his priority might have been not to make any contact with the catcher. But he had his foot there in front of the plate before the ball arrived. I believe David was well within his rights to run him over.
