Batted ball hits second base then rolls foul

A friend of mine swore he saw this happen once. I'm skeptical. I never have. Nevertheless, how would you rule? Here's the alleged situation:

Batted ball hits second base. The base is so spongy that the ball ricochets backwards and has enough momentum to roll across the foul line between third and home without being touched. The catcher then picks up the ball near the on-deck circle. Fair ball? or foul ball?
