Made it a double play and I think it's the right call. What I don't get is why they would take away the neighborhood play which was a way for them to protect themselves. I think forcing them to have a foot on the bag, while technically is right, could lead to more injuries. Straddling the bag should be enough. Just my opinion on that particular change thanks to the new rule.
