This tells me that the calling official on the original common foul should have been administering the throw in on the baseline (2-man game), preferably lane line opposite table side. There are reasons why we switch on fouls.

There was a switch. The explosion didn't happen on the next trip, it was a couple of trips later and the calling official ended up on the table side of the floor
