Ok this one came about the other day and it was one I had to wonder about, cause honestly I dont know, so I though I would ask on here.
Make it short and sweet. Third strike, foul tip straight back into cathers mitt. The ball then quickly pops up about 4-5 inches out of cathers mitt and falls right back in. Out was called, it was end of the game and no one seemed to think any different of it, but I just thought for a moment... does a catcher have to catch a foul tip cleanly, for the out to be called??
On one hand I say this is correct call, but it made me pause and think maybe not. I would not be 100% if I had to make the call on this, so I just gotta find out
