Initially, the announcers claimed that F3 had tried to "steal" the out by leaving the bag soon. But on the second or third replay, one of them said, "Questionable call." Looked out to me from the beginning.
(Sorry I can't supply the players' names. But cite some teams from the late 1950s or early 1960s, and I'll give you most of the roster.)

It was an out when I saw it live. It was an out every time I saw it on replay.
"Initially, the announcers claimed that F3 had tried to "steal" the out by leaving the bag soon."
Another dumb remark. Pulling the foot by F3 is a "gimmee" in pro ball.
