yes...if he cannot place a tag on the batter, he can then make the throw to first base, thus the putout is 2-3.
The drop third strike rule in baseball allows a batter to attempt to run to first base after the catcher fails to catch the third strike. This rule adds an element of strategy and excitement to the game, as it gives the batter a chance to reach base even after striking out.
Throw the ball back to the pitcher. A batter can not advance on a dropped third if first base is occupied.
Plain and simple: it just isn't in baseball rules. It has existed at least since 1845. There is no more logic or reasoning to that rule than there is for the rule requiring nine innings instead of thirteen. It's just the rule. Catcher can drop the ball on a third strike, if firstbase is occupied.!!
Depends on if the ball is blocked in front of home plate or towards the backstop.
get walked, get hit, hit the ball, catcher drop third stirke, catcher interferes with swing, and fieldrs choice
With less than two outs, if first base is unoccupied on a swinging dropped third strike, the batter must be tagged out or forced out at first base. The putout goes either to the player applying the tag (usually the catcher) or the player covering first base in the case of a force out.
Yes. If the runner reaches first base, it is usually due to an error on the catcher's part, so the scoring is 'K' for strikeout but 'E2' for the catcher dropping the ball. If the catcher recovers in time, then again the 'K' for strikeout is accompanied by '2-3' for the actual putout at first base.
it is a pitch in fastpitch softball that's starts knee to thigh high and drops through the strike zone while crossing the plate preferably into the dirt right in front of the catcher.
