Hit vs fc on tag play

I keep score for our Varsity team. Our lead off hitter with some good wheels hits a slow/medium speed 3 hopper to third base with one out and a runner on second. The 3rd baseman comes in on the grass to field it, fakes a throw to first, draws the runner on second off the bag enough to get him in a run down and eventually out. Would have been a close play at first. It looks to me, based on OBR 10.05b3, that because an out was made, it's a fc for the batter instead of a hit, even if I think he would have beat the throw. Agree?
