He said yes. I asked if the defender was still standing on the base in possession of the ball. He said he thought so.

I'm a little lost here. You're saying that after you got him to conference with you about whether F6 possessed the ball while touching the bag before the runner arrived that you instead discussed whether the runner left the base while the fielder was standing on the base (though presumably without a tag, you'd have nothing there.) When all these lightbulbs were turning on what ended up coming out of that play and who had to be ejected?
