Let's say...
There's a runner on 1B (R1). As the pitcher commits to deliver, the R1 takes off for 2B.
The batter takes a mighty swing at the pitch and barely nicks it. The ball goes sharp and direct to the catcher's mitt and, as he is gaining secure control, the R1 (legally) slides into 2B, as the umpire calls "Foul!"
What do you do? ...
As,
A. The Plate Umpire
B. The Base Umpire
C. The Offensive Manager
D. The Defensive Manager
I'll admit this is kind of a trick question, because I didn't really say what role you were playing in this scenario. And what you would or might do could depend on who did what first.
Regardless, I would be interested in your answer.

Ah the tricky mind.
A. Lets see as PU - it won't happen
B. as BU - let PU make the decision - its his call. (probably throw out the assistant coach as head coach is arguing with PU)
C. The Offensive Manager - probably going to get thrown out for arguing a crazy rule.
D. The Defensive Manager - glad that' he's gotten away with the call.
