Bayouump hit it on the head. The throw was up the line and drew 1st baseman off and ball was fielded in foul territory. As the runner went by, he stepped to the inside of the foul line into fair territoty to avoid the tag, which he did. After arguing with the plate ump about call, he said that the runner was called out for running into fair territory to avoid tag. The running 3 foot outside or inside of the foul line was not part of his decision to reverse the safe call that was given by the fistbase ump.
