A batter-runner is ruled out if any fielder gains full, controlled possession of the live Baseball in flight. If a hit baseball were to hit off the head of one fielder, and be caught by another fielder who gained controlled possession before the ball touched the ground or a wall, the batter would be out. So the assumed conclusion would be that yes, if the pitcher were able to reach into his uniform and gain full, controlled possession of the baseball before it touched the ground, the batter would be out. It would be like any other bobbled ball that was eventually controlled before touching the ground. However, there may be specific ground rules relating to a player's uniform.

Do pitchers and catchers have to wear two cups sometimes for more protection and what is the best cup to buy?
There is no rule here. More protection is a personal choice. An athletic store or a teammate can help you choose the right one. i dont think that they would have to, but definatley wear a cup. i know catchers have to but pitchers should because a teammate was pitching without a cup and got a line drive there, he was down for 15 min. i was pitching one time and got hit there by a line drive and it shattered my cup. i shudder to think what it would feel like if i didnt have a cup on.
