I'd guess that the player is a 2nd baseman playing deep who went airborne to get a high one hopper. There is a runner on 1st base. Based upon the umpire's angle, he thinks that the force will go to 2nd base to retire R1.
With that's said, I would prefer to see the actual release of the ball before I start focusing on a base.
