Gianluca Magnani, ESF umpire from Italy, was selected as the plate umpire in the championship final of the recently concluded Women's World Championship in Beijing, China.

Sit.: R1, R2.
The batter hits a flyball to short leftfield. F6 moves back and dives for the ball. However, when he hits the ground the ball rolls out of his glove. F7 grabs the ball and throws it to 3B. The BR, seeing this, passes R1 who stayed at 1B because of the flyball. F5 catches the ball and tags 3B (R2 stays surprised on 2B) and then throws to F4 who tags 2B. What is your decision?
