In Fed ball,it is always the responsibility of the defense to know the situation and not throw down to first.The catcher must know the count,number of outs,and position of the baserunners as it is totally up to her to make the proper decision.If you called the pitch a ball,she should not have thrown to first.If you felt this action was done on purpose,I would give a team warning to the effect of making a travesty of the game,but on a check swing for a possible strike three,I would give the batter the benefit of the doubt on that one.You were defintely correct in letting the baserunners remain on the bases they achieved.
