Note
One regular -ed spelling serves as both past tense and past participle, so the sentence decides which: active in she sandwiched the call between two meetings, passive in the car was sandwiched between two trucks. The passive is its usual home, nearly always followed by between. It carries both the physical squeeze of an object and the figurative squeeze of an event set between two others in time.
