2 steps fair would have been much better spot to call, and 2 steps foul would have been even better. But how was he suppposed to know the throw was going to the bare hand side?

When I first saw the play, I thought that same thing. Oddly, two steps foul would have likely given him a better shot at seeing the catch, but how do you know?
