I don't know whether a player can reach through a fence to catch a ball, but if he can, I wouldn't have disallowed the catch if he showed me he was holding the ball securely, even if it was on the other side of the fence. I wouldn't make him bring the ball back through the opening.
Hey, imagine what would have happened if the coach had used a slur that commonly applied to someone other than a Southern white man.
