Last night at LL Majors game: none on, none out. BR chops a spinner down the 1B line, hits foul, then spins across the line fair where F3 fields it next to 1B bag.
PU calls "foul ball!" Obviously its fair. Oops.
Question: since the 1B and BR stopped their play when they heard 'foul ball' (F3 did not step on bag, he returned ball to F1), if the PU were to reverse this call, could he call the out that wasn't made (since F3 was one step from 1B with ball in hand)? Or is this one of those 'inadvertent whistle' type sitchs where's its just too bad, play on?
BTW, that run eventually scored, and was the difference in a 7-6 ballgame
