Big difference between this video and the first video. The first video has the fielder blocking half of the bag with his foot. This video shows the fielder blocking the entire bag with his lower leg. The first video also shows the ball arriving way before the runner is near the base. He's out by a "mile"!Wow, this is going to be an issue early on.
Like when the NFL tried to teach defenders to change the way they were brought up to tackle.
MLB guidelines are trying to avoid this type of obstruction when the fielder doesn't have the ball...
