Runner at 2nd. The batter taps a slow grounder down the 3rd base line. The 3B has no chance to throw out the batter, so she allows the ball to roll, hoping it will go foul. The 3B stays behind 3rd, waiting for the ball to roll foul. When the runner slides into 3rd, she touches the ball. What's the call?
Add to issue, I know it states F5 stayed behind 3B, but was that the position the entire time, or did F3 come up and maybe allow the ball to roll pass and then retreat?
