Reply to "Yet another scoring question"

The call would not depend on the particular right fielder, but rather if an ordinary effort from an average fielder at the particular level of play would have resulted in an out. On fly balls, unless it's shallow, you are always going to give the benefit of the doubt to the batter. I have never seen, even at the mlb level, where a scorer would assume ordinary effort would result in an out at the plate on a fly ball to the outfield.
