Batter/runner out?

Situation; High school baseball batter hits a ground ball in the infield the play is going to be close and the batter slides in head first two hands reach the bag safely, he does not overslide the bag and pops up onto the bag, the firstbaseman fields the wild throw going up the right field line he comes around the umpire (second base side) and tags the runner who is now three feet off the bag in the baseline towards second base. He or his coach never asked for "time". What is the call....I have an out, two steps off the first base bag towards second in the basepath. Just dumb!
