The catch and carry rule in softball stipulates that a defensive player who catches a fly ball while standing on or near the boundary of the outfield can be considered to have made a legal catch, even if they subsequently step out of bounds while carrying the ball. However, if the player steps out of bounds before making the catch, the ball is ruled a dead ball and the batter is awarded a base. This rule ensures that players cannot gain an unfair advantage by deliberately stepping out of bounds to make a catch.

No if it is a foul ball or if it hits the fence and you catch it it does not matter you still can play it if it is not foul but if it is foul and you catch it when it hits the fence they just call it a strike. Actually - you CAN catch a ball off the fence. There is no rule against it, however it will NOT be counted as an out. The fence is part of the field just like the ground. Therefore, if it hits the fence in foul or fair territory, it is played the same as if it had hit the ground before you caught it.
