Answer: Two. R1 and B3.
PU's explination: The ball could have hit a rock and bounced fair, and F5 could have made a double play. Therefore the base coach prevented a potential double play, and both outs stand.
And no, a protest was not called by the offense. Go figure...
Based on a true story.

Three outs.
1) Ump not calling foul when " ball first hits the dugout fence"
2) Ump for the expl
anation
3) OC for not questioning or protesting
