ASA 16U. R1 on 3B, 1 out.

Batter fouls out to F5.

For some reason, everyone is confused about how many outs there were. F5 started walking the ball back to the infield.

3B coach turns and heads toward the dugout on the 3B side of the field. R1 is confused and about 8 feet off the base, wondering what to do.

Without all of the body language going on, F5 could have easily stepped on 3B for a DP. But for some reason, threw it back to the pitcher, who I assume was in the circle, but my focus was on the runner.

I'm waiting for R1 to do something, when somebody on the defense yells, throw it to third. At this point, R1 gets the clue and hustles back to the bag before a throw is made.

Now D coach is yelling about a lookback violation, because the ball was in the circle.

Did I miss the out?

Thanx.
