Question

This is the same game as my previous post on the Squeeze bunt where the batter was called out of box.
for this one im curious if you would consider this a completed catch?
this is a game highlight video so fast forward to 1:22 - batter hits a soft sinking fly to shallow CF - did the CF complete that catch? what would you call that?
Play in Question begins at 1:22
Also just in case you didn't see the other tread - the controversial call on the Squeeze is at 1:58 (normal speed) and 2:25 (slow motion)

I doubt these guys will end up on the Braves' coach's Christmas card list.
