Later had a batter take off to first on a passed ball strike 2, with 2 outs. Both runners moved up to 2nd, 3rd. Since the ball got by the catcher and she had no play on any runner, we just sent the batter back to the plate.
Would you have done anything different if she had a play on another runner?
(Didn't we just have this conversation)?

I did kick one call I think. Girl lays down a bunt, and the ball bounced up and hit her foot. I called it a foul ball as initially I thought she was still in the box when it hit her. The more I think about it, the more I think she was out of the box and I missed the call. Partner was in the C position and said he couldn't tell if she was or wasn't.
Nobody questioned? Nobody argued? - Go with the call, don't overthink it (except maybe to remind yourself to slow down the call next time it happens).

Yes, the defensive coach came out to ask if she was really in the box when the ball hit her? I said it was, and he went back. The best line was from the catcher though. "He can't question it, there is no line." Since it was the RH batter's box late in the second game, there was not line to use as reference.

The reason I think, upon further review that she was out of the box after all, is I remember her being at the very front of the box on her at bats. So far forward I was wondering if I was going to have to call her for being out of the box at some point.

Oh well, no more JV till Saturday, but a MS one umpire game Thursday :>
