Watching asu and texas pop to outfield second baseman with feet inside foul line attemps to catch the ball and drops it...is that a fair ball or foul ball?

The umpire called it foul, but was standing three feet in foul ground and not on the line. So she was not in the right position to make that call.

Depends on where the ball was, not where the fielder was. If the ball was outside the line, its a foul ball.

Unless she catches the ball. Then they would move the chains and signal "FIRST DOWN"! ;)
