Sometimes I think we forget that we're not robots. It appears to me that Scott put his hands up while backing away from the catcher. I can see where the Padres players thought the play was killed, but on a close play like this, I'd assume the call would have been "sold" by the umpire. The only selling was when the ball was called fair. In my opinion, this was an unfortunate mistake the instinctual reaction of Mr. Scott.
