tiBear:
There are three "do overs" that I know of:
The situation as described in your post when both cause the issue: another is an umpire starts a new inning and on the first pitch the batter doubles, at that time the umpire recognizes that the right fielder had not been on the field during the play and finally: with a runner on base the defensive teams errors and throws the ball into DBT . . . the second baseman and pitcher try to do do a "hidden ball trick" -- as F1 steps on to the pitcher's plate and the umpire calls: "Play" the second baseman produces the ball and tags the runner.
Under all three of these situations the play is a "do over" by rule.
