I say it did bounce. We disagree. The play was within the rules although unusual.

I say the hypothetical bounce doesn't even matter, because "Strike 3" and OUT were signaled, and even the runner thought the inning was over...until he decided to turn around and take a chance...

Umps can change calls if they feel they made the incorrect one. Eg. Foul home runs, tag applied and ball is knocked out, ball dropped after outfield catch before transfer of ball to throwing hand etc...

It happens all the time.
