I use the line. It's the same for both teams and a lot easier on my judgment.

That said, I change a bit as it relates to the base:

If the base is off the line (not touching it at all), I call the line. Therefore, if the ball bounces past the right side of 1st (or left side of 3rd) and it's between the base and line, it's fair.

If the base hangs over the foul line, I will call any ball fair that hits the base.

Of course, this is all detailed in pregame conference. I've never had a problem with any coach.
