Reply to "was this the right call?"

Good question. The batter also has a right to the running lane. Was he in it? How close was the fense? It could be argued that the ball could spin or be wind-blown back into fair grounds and that the runner was hustling just in case. Besides, a ball is not foul until it lands in foul territory or is caught in foul territory. It is a live ball and the runner has every right to the lane. I would be interested in the correct answer also.
