I believe we've had a discussion on this board in the past about "un-ringing a foul ball call". While I don't remember specifics, I do recall that several members adamantly argued about the "un-ringing". The tone was that the umpire screwed up and now deserved the ration of $h!t that was coming.
Reading the rule above, is the offensive team put in jeopardy if the umpire calls a foul ball. At that point, all play ceases as we have a dead ball. Sure, with a runner on third base that would have surely scored if the umpire ruled correctly, has that team been "placed in jeopardy"?
