How would you get through this one?
What would you do?
At the end of the day this is a play almost impossible to call by humans in real time. Does that mean we need instant replay?

There's no good answer as to what would be done if this play was reversible -- award bases? Do what you "think" would have happened?
If a play like this becomes subject to review, then you'll see umpires trained to leave the ball live in any questionable situation and use replay to reverse it. In fact, that's good training and good umpiring anyway.
