Still photo published in Spokane Spokesman-Review was taken at point of impact of bat and ball. Photo shows one foot in box and the other foot out of box, but off the ground a time of the hit. Guillen was already beginning his move to "drag" the bunt up the first base line when contact was made between bat and ball.
In slow video replays one can see him beginning this motion to his right which takes his foot off the plate just as the bat hit the ball. Legal hit.
Good no call by ump.
