REPLY: I was watching the game when it happened. I agree with Suudy...there was what seemed to be an IW. In fact, after the illegal bat forward, a WS receiver picked it up and started to run only to realize that the ball had been blown dead. It was near the near-side sideline, but I don't think it ever went OOB. I immediately thought that it was an IW. I was surprised when all Lemonnier mentioned was the "illegal bat." Maybe (just speculating) he didn't mention the IW because of the acccepted penalty for the foul. Also (unless I'm mistaken) Lemonnier gave the illegal touching signal even though he specifically said "illegal batting."
