What if you let the play continue and the ball rolls into fair territory and dies. Now you have a fair ball. And F5 is complaining that she was prevented from touching the ball while it was still in foul territory, knowing that she had no play on the B-R.
What is your (ASA, NFHS, NCAA) call?

HTBT. If the fielder was actually prevented from fielding the ball in foul territory, it's a foul ball. If it was intentional, it's a foul ball and I'll probably need another player to return to 3B.
If the fielder was not making any effort to field the ball at the time of the "bump", it's nothing.
As stated, HTBT
