FED, I'd let it play out.

I don't disagree with your qualitative judgment, but, it's their rules, so I do my best to abide them.

What are you going to play out? Three outs have been recorded so it would reason that all play is going to stop, at least by the defense.

Once three outs have been recorded, the way I understand the rules, the ball is dead anyways. Could be wrong.

I understand the dilema in FED's play it out senario, just sayin.
