BR may or may not have seen the foul signal. You don't know that for certain. No matter what you do you're in trouble. Declaring the ball "foul" almost amounts to a "do over". Eat the crow and make the correct call.

i think you are saying that we should have called the B/R out...he saw the foul point so he stopped. (he thought he knew the situation)...F3 didn't hear foul and saw a fair ball so he thought he knew the situation...the ball was fair but not 'obvious' to everyone i.e. a nutcutter....when you say 'eat the crow and make the correct call', i am not sure what that should be that is why i am asking
