As a league official in our company intramural league, I was overseeing two playoff games between the top 4 "C" division teams. We were walking from an upper field to a lower level field and passed in foul territory along the right field line.
A batter hit a liner over the infield into right field near the line which landed fair by about 10 feet. The ever alert right fielder, noting that the ball had some spin on it, ran parallel to the foul line and proceeded to wait on the ball to go foul, at which point I'm sure he would have pounced on it to keep it foul.
As we were passing very nearby while the play was going on, I suggested to him that he might want to pick it up right away. Runners from first and second were high-tailing it around the bases.
His teammates started yelling at him also, and he did finally pick up the ball while it was in fair territory.
