The OP was about a tag.

Then Dave said he thought that the "voluntary release" thing applied equally to a tag or a catch.

Then Mike pointed out that it doesn't necessarily.

Then Dave questioned it's application with respect to a catch.

Then I addressed Dave's question about a catch.

Sometimes people throw other questions into the mix besides the first one they asked!

What about a thrown ball "caught" (e.g. F3) with glove on ground, possible trap. If the fielder brings glove and ball up immediately, that's control. But if delayed, what time or move would create doubt in your mind that the ball was trapped on the ground and not controlled?
