She So Purposely Dropped That Ball

She dropped the ball on purpose. Kit wanted the spotlight for once in her life and Dotti gave it to her. I was a catcher and have gotten run into many of times and held on to the ball every time so it is not hard once you have the ball to safely secure it in your glove. Dotti clearly had enough time to get the ball in her glove and position herself to make the tag.

I honestly the scene is just poorly filmed, and looks like Dotty dropped the ball on purpose.
It should have come flying out at the moment of impact, but for dramatic purposes they had Dottie hold on longer, so they could show the close-up of the ball dropping. I believe all the debate is the result of the director not watching enough MLB home plate collisions and nothing more.
No way Dottie would have thrown the game in my opinion. -

I can take it just fine. What makes you think that I can't?
Are you sure that you replied to the right person? I've done nothing on this thread but say (over and over) how it can go either wayIt's up to each person to interpret that scene to fit their own desires, and NOBODY can be wrong (And I'm totally open to new interpretations too if anybody has any by the way).
If that so OBVIOUSLY proves that I can't handle other people's opinions, then I guess you're right.
My apologies.
