So, it's a hit (or better: batted ball) that should be handled as a grounder. Fielders can make an out on a force play. Funny that this didn't come up to me earlier. Probably caused by the catch by F9.

b.t.w.: Have you ever seen a play like this in your (>40yr?) experience?
Signaling and stating "no catch" will go a tremendous way to help eliminate confusion. However, many codes don't have this preventitive mechanic in their manual so check with your UIC before using it.
