Is the play not dead when the fan touches it?

I don't think it is. It's happened a few times (way more often than you would actually think), but I think that the outfielder actually does has to retrieve the ball like you just mentioned with Larry Walker. The runners can just continue running while he doesn't have the ball.

So what would have happened if Hale came home as well? That's my question. Would the catcher have to run over to the coach and retrieve it? Obviously the coach couldnt toss it to him.

or in this case while the coach holds the ball and looks like a complete idiot arguing with the ump.
