I voted for what should be the norm here but, I will stick with what I previously stated. Also, there is just no way in hell, even if your an olympic sprinter and not retired, that if your in foul terriitory and the runner breaks for 2nd your going to be in position to even look like you made the correct call.

Depends on where the runner was when the ball went into DPT.

That said, there is no way in hell anyone should have been in foul territory given the OP.
