If you don't call the out, the ball must be in play

1 question - did he drop it on purpose? If so, treat as an IFF.

Well, it's an out and the runners are not forced, but an intentional drop is not treated as an IFF. An IDB is immediately DEAD and the BR is out. Runners cannot advance, the defense cannot appeal for leaving the base before the touch.
If it was an IFF, which is not the case in this scenario, you cannot have an IDB.
