Both managers are trying to figure out what just went on, as am I. I conference w/ partner and he tells me he had a catch and R2 was safe at second base (no safe call was ever made). I put R2 back on 2B and explained to the OC that since a live ball was thrown and held by the umpire the play was dead. Any feedback?

Why are you signaling the out? Shouldn't the BU have the call on sinking liner to F8? Sounds like the two of you were both confused.
