What would you do?
Any casebook play provided would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I see three options here.
1. Your option is a good one; letting it roll and continuing the count.
2. Bat it back to him and continue the count. Don't start it over.
3. Stop the clock and re-administer. This defeats B1's purpose and allows A to set up their defense.
Personally, I like all three but prefer #1.
