The umpire calls a ball batted behind homeplate a foul ball. The ball spins back onto homeplate without being touched. Is the ball fair or foul?

If the ball landed behind home plate, it is already a foul ball, even if it rolls back into fair territory.
If the batter already has 2 strikes and then the ball is bunted foul, it's an out.
The above answer is wrong. If a batted ball lands behind home plate but rolls forward and settles on the plate or in front of the plate, it is a fair ball.

Behind home plate is great. The closer down the better, but even if you're a level up in the stands, it's a great place to watch the game.

Are you thinking of Manny Ramierez? He was traded from the Boston Red Sox to the Dodgers this past season. I think he's a right fielder.

What happens in rounders when a batter hits the ball behind them?
I'm not sure if you mean "baseball" when you say "rounders," but if you are, nothing happens if the batter drops the bat in baseball.
Why is the pitchers mound not in the center of the baseball diamond?
This is because the rules of baseball say the mound is a distance from homeplate that is less than halfway the distance between homeplate and 2nd base. The distance is the same between each base in order (the same from home to 1st, 1st to 2nd, 2nd to 3rd, 3rd to home.) This results in the distance between homeplate and 2nd equal to the distance between 1st and 3rd. If you draw a line between homeplate and 2nd, and a line between 1st and 3rd, the lines will intersect in the center of the baseball diamond. However, the center point will be behind the pitcher's mound. You can use the Pythagorean Theorem to prove the distance from the mound to home is less than the center point, but that is another question. (Hint: The distance squared from home to first plus the distance squared from first to second divided by 2).
How do museums display specimens?
Most museums display their objects behind glass. This practice keeps them out of reach of visitors and enables them to be well and completely preserved. However, some objects are allowed to be touched by visitors, so those are exhibited without glass.
