All this happens in foul territory.
Is the BR in jeopardy in a or b or both?
The foul ground aspect is my question... the "flinch" was big enough to warrant jeopardy if it was in fair territory...

I don't believe "fair or foul" territory has an bearing on this play. Rule 8-7-h talks about an attempt to run to second base. Is flinching an attempt? Sounds like a HTBT.
I'm probably not seeing that as an attempt to run to 2B.
