Interesting Call!!

The MLB scenario was Lenny Randle, 3B for the Seattle Mariners, who blew the slow roller foul on the turf inside the Kingdome. The umps did rule against him, and awarded the batter first base on the play.

As for the softball/gravel play, it sounds like a HTBT play. But fielders are not allowed to do that intentionally (cause a ball to go foul), are they?

If a foul ball is rolling toward fair territory, can a fielder throw their glove at the ball to keep it from rolling fair? Or is that considered the same as throwing a glove at a fair ball and penalized as such?
