[QBUA]

Oldmate, you did well.
The only one that may have thrown you was the last one, but I see what you mean.
Yes, with the speed of this play and everything happening around the plate, the umpire would probably only get to do a side step to compare the ball to the foul line, not being able to get onto the foul line as per teaching methods. I believe this is what you were thinking about.
The main thing to remember with a ball touching runners, umpires etc in fair territory, the position of the ball at the moment of contact. Was it in fair territory or foul territory?

Thanks for your response.
I put this here just to see how many may answer it, and to give people some reminders, just something to think about.
With a squeeze play, if the runner goes to early, all of these things can come into play and happen in an instant.
