A thrown ball that is gloved (caught) that remains in the fielders clear voluntary control while the base is being touched is an out. What happens after the out is made is moot.
How does J/R deal with the double play pivot where the fielder drops the ball after clearly touching the bag at second for the out? They call the runner there safe?
