I could have sworn this was an umpire forum where fellow officials could ask questions and kick around thoughts regarding their interps. Around this area, we strive to mentor those who ask. Sometimes we provide rule book answers and other times we simply listen and offer advice. Why is it that some feel compelled to ridicule others for simply asking a question in this forum?

Immunity?
OP is different. Ball is fair, moving down 1st base line. Runner is running behind the slow roller and makes contact with the ball before the ball has passed a fielder. Foul within batter's box and out further up the baseline.

pretty simple answer here. If the batter meant to kick the ball he is out, if the umpire reads his mind and see that he did not mean to kick the ball it was purely an accidental kick, foul ball!
