Question

Kinda of slow in here so I thought I would bring this play up and see what you guys think

No out R1 on 2nd and R2 on 1st. B3 hits deep fly to left and runners move up PU calls the out but B3 is hard of hearing or something goes and stays on 1st. The umpires going back to position didnt notice that B3 stayed on 1st, pitcher throws a pitch to B4 not swung at, then the offensive team coach at 3rd bring to attention of PU that B3 is standing on 1st, so then B3 heads to the dugout. The defensive coach comes out yelling that should be an out for illegal runner.


I was the PU and told the defensive coach that it was nothing and basically no harm, no foul it was the offensive coach that had pointed it out and it was my fault for not noticing before the pitch to B4.

Questions

Was this the right call?
What if B4 had swung at the pitch and hit a fair ball before B3 was caught?
Would it make any difference if this was brought up by the defensive coach 1st instead of the offensive coach?
Any other thoughts?

Thanks

Don
