This should have been my first post in the thread, but anyway...
I actually had this situation on my first series of the year. I'm in a deep B, short pop up behind the mound, F5 and F4 both running all out for it. F5 dives, catches the ball and catches F4's knee right between the eyes. That's a catch, out, time, bring the trainers out. Two ambulances later, game on.

U3 happened to see F5's eyes roll back in his head so it got scary for a minute.

Just call the out.

Game 7 of the World Series, bottom of the ninth, R2, no outs, game tied. The Hudson play occurs. R2 tags up to go to third. Seeing that everyone is distracted by the unconscious player, R2 takes a wide turn at 3B. F3 becomes alert that he had best do something or the WS is over. He reaches into F4's glove but his first try muffs the ball to the ground. He finally picks the ball up and throws to F2 but it gets past the catcher and R2 scores the winning run. Common sense would dictate the VT manager to argue that it was "no catch" which would make it just a foul ball with R2 being sent back to 2B.
