Not seeing where the ball would have gone to, how would you know if the runner could advance. As the third base coach in this situation, I can tell you that depending on the riccochet off the fence, we may have tried it.
After this game, the umpire advised me that he should have given the runner the base. But it did not matter ultimately.
