I didn't take my eyes off the play, which is the only reason I saw the ball on the ground in the first place.
The problem was I was in B and as the fielder pivoted to make a potential throw home I was looking at his back. Therefore, if and when his hands came together, and the ball was being transferred, I would have missed it. To me it seemed odd that I would have that happen, and never see the ball on its way to the ground, unless his legs were blocking me out of that.
My last piece of evidence was that the ball didn't come flying out, as it typically does on a transfer.
All my evidence was completely circumstantial, because I never saw the ball come of the glove in the first place, or knew when it happened (I know I first saw it on the ground when the fielder had already pivoted to make a throw home).
I guess maybe its just a pitfall of a 2 man system, but I don't feel confident going to bed chalking up that excuse.
