Do you agree? If not, what is your call?

BTW, this is it, there is no more information. WYSIWYG. If you don't read it here, it didn't happen.
Notice in all this, the only calls made were the ruling on the appeal and the subsequent ruling that R1's run does not count because of the appeal being a force play.

I do not agree.

If the ball was a fair ball, the BR is out on the IFF, and the appeal was a timing play, not a force play. Run scores.

If the ball was a foul ball, the appeal is moot and the runners return.

So, no matter whether the ball was fair or foul, I disagree with the call(s).
