VA, you're way off on this one. I think you're letting yourself be swayed by announcer-speak on this one. Nothing you imply is even remotely supported by the rulebook. There is ONE question that the umpire must answer on a play like this:

Did the fielder have possession of the ball during the tag?

That's it. If yes, then everything that happened afterward is moot.
