Do you go to the AP or use POI? If you think you should use POI, then what would it be?
You'd go to the point of interruption which in this case happens to be the AP.

POI, which is a beer after the game supplied by your partner for making this call from lead.

This actually happened twice in my game last night, with it happening to each team once. At least he was calling it both ways.

Pet Peeve

This is actually one of my pet peeves. Trail has flight of the ball. If lead is watching the ball then no one's watching his lane positions for violations or fouls.

I worked 4 games on Saturday with a guy who did this all day. And, they were youth games which meant it happened a lot. I mentioned the proper coverage to him, and it was like talking to a wall.
