I've had this happen a few times. And I think I called it both ways at times.
It is a HTBT play. Are they close? Are they far apart? Is the runner watching the ball? Is the runner watching the fielder? Did the runner see the fielder slow down? And from the umpires position could he tell that the runner veered or was running straight? Gosh--So many questions > As long as an umpire makes a QUICK, GOOD judgement, he or she will have no problem selling either call to a coach. If you let the play continue and then make a call or ask for help- then a storm cloud is amassing.
