Be sure you know what is meant by "past [the] third baseman." OBR, NCAA, and Fed spell out differently exactly what constitutes a batted ball going "past a fielder," such as "within arm's reach," etc.

It's in my BRD, but I don't remember the specific differences offhand. I'm sure someone will fill us in.

If the ball indeed went "past" F5 by definition, then the ball is in play and of course Illini_Ref is correct.
