ASA 16U showcase. R1 on 3b when BR hits ball to F3. F3 fields the ball and looks R1 back to 3rd. BR is tagged by F3. At this point both my partner and I call the BR out on the tag. After the game my partner and I talk and he is under the impression that the call is his. I say that the call is mine. My reasoning is that he needs to concentrate on the potential call at home. I also feel it's first play in the infield, not to home plate type situation. What do you all think?
Unless it is in the vicinity of the plate, the BU owns this call.
Mike - I was taught the same way that MNBlue mentions above, ie the call is divided by the beginning of the running lane.

What would be your definintion of "vicinity of the plate"?
