Excellent question, honestly, I could probaly argue R 2-11-11. However, that is stretching it a bit. I could argue 2-13.3 that deals with timing mistakes. (does not apply in the situation). So, the only half legitimate stance I may present is Good Judgement of the personnel at the table.. I would go to table for assistance "IF" and only "IF" me or my partner missed a call. Something like the ball touching the wire will not be one of them.
