Garth,
Thanks for the input. You might be right about Roder and the WUA. My guess is that if that situation ever came up in MLB, whatever the PU ruled would end up being the precedent (specifically, a ball bouncing before being struck by the batter and subsequently caught by F2).

My point in the discussion was, if that occurred in amateur baseball . . . we umpires need to be aware of what we would rule . . . and why. Both Evans and Roder have given thought to it; it's what we choose to side with at the time it occurs.

I'm ready. It's a foul tip.

Jerry
