ahhhhhnt, wrong answer!
In this instance it is where the ball is when it is touched. We are calling a fair or foul ball not a fair or foul fielder (which would be a whole other issue). The umpire may have gotten the call right but for the wrong reason here. The catcher could have been standing in foul territory, but touched the ball in fair territory, thus making it a fair ball.
