With one out and R1 is on 3B, B3 hits a fly ball to deep center field. F8 is waiting for the ball when the 3B coach taps the leg of R1 in an effort to tell R1 when to advance. The ball is caught by F8 after the tap by the coach.

The runner is out when the coach touched the runner on 3rd. 3 outs

Henry is correct. Ball is caught and runner is out. Inning is over.

Do you call the double play immediately, like with interference? Or is it a delayed dead ball, until the ball is caught?
