I agree with what maineblue said. Even it was intentional which it wasn’t the on deck person that picked up the ball could not have been called out because he had not taken his position in the batter’s box thus becoming the batter. If it had been intentional the batter would have been the one called out.
BTW… I believe that this would be a protestable call as the ump called the wrong guy out (No one should have been out. Either way protestable).
