Interestingly, there is a semantic issue that may be at the point of the OP's dispute. Suppose the pitcher charged toward the 1B foul line to glove a bunt. He gloves it but his momentum carries him into a marked dead ball area ( pipes, drainage whatever). The ball is dead. What is the award?

The flip side to this debate is it appears that in MLB if you STAY ON YOUR FEET and don't fall over, the ball stays live-runners may tag up, and I suppose you're allowed to throw the ball from the DBT 7.04c, 5.10f

1 base.

Unless, of course, he did it on purpose. then, it's two bases.

I'm wondering if it might be 2 bases and treated as a thrown ball. The fielder did not catch a fair or foul line drive or fly.
Ground ball with over throw to F3 who chases it and as he picks it up his momentum carries him into a dead ball area. Award?

I read your play ("F1 gloves bunt") as a catch. Sorry.
