If I ever get into a situation where I can't tell what happened first, I call the out, and also sell it hard so it doesn't appear that you don't know what happened first. It's pretty much been a general rule for me that if I am ever in doubt about something, a bang bang play, a ball being trapped or not, a pitch on the border of ball or strike, maybe a balk, maybe not, anything like that, I pretty much always give the benefit of the doubt to the defense. As our UIC used to tell me when I started, "You get paid to call outs and strikes."
