Ok guys here's the sitch. runner coming around third to score, the throw eats the runner to the plate. Durring the tag (which beat the runner before he touched home) attempt the runner slides and the glove is knocked(kicked) clean off the catchers hand , but the ball remains in the glove. Now the gloves is on the ground and the catcher fun les trying to put it back on .

What do you have ?

Thanks guys, I froze, banged the out and waited for the Manager to come out and rip me a new one. It was the 3rd out and the manager did come out , but since his team was up 11-1 in the top of the 7th he didn't push too hard, or ask me to get help. I was fully ready to get with my partner and change it if I had to , and apparently I kicked it. I've never seen that happen, and I didn't see the ball come out , so I banged it, and 2nd guessed myself almost immediatly.

I have a defensive player losing control of the ball during the tag. No different than had he dropped the ball.

Safe, no glove=no control (same as ball on ground). And guyinaredhat, the manager probably didn't argue because he was in one of the last innings up 11-1, and wanted the game to end soon as well.

I have safe, unless the glove was kicked off versus knocked off. In that case I have out.

But it's an out for interference - not for a valid tag.

Correct! :beerbang

or possibly MC. Depends on the "kick"

No such thing in OBR. Still interference though.
