⚾ 🥎 E7? Or do you rule this a hit?

I'm giving it a hit to any little league and probably up to high school. You leave your feet and that means it was not routine. College and pros gotta make that play, so I'm giving that an error. The ball was above his head when he dove.
 
Coming in on a ball it is an error. Going back on a ball it would be a hit.

Regardless it's a judgement call. I've always felt as a player it's easier diving backwards than forwards due to how my head hit or how impact jolted me. I was a receiver in football, so of course always felt more comfortable with my hips and diving backwards with running a ball down.
