Place the Runners

[DG]

Did not see a conference and don't know why one would be necessary. I did have a similar situation once in a tournament game, I was working U3 position. Similar in that F4 bobbled the ball and then threw it over F2's head out of play and runner from 1b was being scored. Ball was already dead so I called crew together for discussion. One item of discussion was that the fielder bobbled the ball and then threw it out of play so the throw was 2nd play play by an infielder. I said bobbling the ball and picking it up was not a play it was screwup, throwing the ball was a play, and we all agreed on that and runner R1 returned to 3b. He had reached 2b at TOT if anyone wondering.

Can't see a major league crew needing this discussion.
