In baseball, Fair vs. Foul is determined where the ball is not where the player is. With all the action in front of home plate perhpas the PU did not know exactly where the Ball was when F2 finally got it. As mentioned he pointed fair because at the time he saw the ball in fair territory but then when all the action happened, he wasn't so sure so he called in his partners. Remember it's much easier to change a Fair call to FOUL then the other way around even though as mentioned on this Forum it has been done. However the OP also said that the umpires huddled for some 5 / 10 minutes which IMO means that perhaps they amongst themselves could not come up with a difintive call, hence the "failsafe" Foul call because if one of them was sure the ball was Foul, then the conversation between the group should not have lasted as long as it had.
