What if a fielder catches a ball but loses his glove and the ball stays in the glove?
If the glove or mitt falls off in the process of catching the ball, it is not a legal catch. The fielder must have control of the ball in the glove and then remove it himself.
What happens to base runners when a defensive player catches a ball in foul territory and his momentum carries him to out of bounds?
If the fielder falls into the stands or the dugout after catching the foul, the ball is dead and runners are awarded base from the base they occupied at the time of the pitch.
Is it a home run if ball is caught and the fielder falls into stands?
If he drops it yes
If a fielder catches a fly ball and falls over the center field fence is it an out or a home run?
If the player holds on to the ball and it is determined that it did not touch the ground, it is an out. If the player drops the ball while falling over the fence, it is a home run. Added: To get more technical, I think as long as the fielder has his feet inside the area of the field of play, it would be an out. If the entire body (including feet) are over the fence when the catch is made, then it would be a home run. The above answer is wrong. If a fielder leaps and catches the ball before he touches dead ball territory the catch is good and the batter is out. It doesn't matter where he is in relation to the fence. He could be ten feet into dead ball territory and as long as he hasn't touched the ground, the catch is valid.
When a player steals and the fielder tags runner and his glove falls off and ball stays in glove is he safe or out?
The runner would be safe. This is the same as if the ball were dislodged and falls out of the glove.

What happens to runners when a pop-up is caught in foul territory and the fielder runs into the out of play area?
If the fielder falls into the stands or the dugout after catching the foul, the ball is dead and runners are awarded base from the base they occupied at the time of the pitch.
Is it still considered a force if with a runner on first the fielder chooses to throw to first but the runner is safe but the runner from first falls and the first baseman throws to second base?
Once the batter/runner is forced out at 1st base, the force out of all other base runners is no longer in effect. Therefore, even if the original runner at 1st falls, he must be tagged out. He could, in fact, return to first and be safe there if he is not tagged out.

Depends what height it falls from or how hard Vinny throws it.
When a fielder catches a ball and falls into the stands is it a foul ball or an out?
The baseball rules differentiate between a foul ball and a foul tip.A foul tip caught by the catcher is a strike. If it's the third strike the result is a strikeout, otherwise the at bat continues.A foul ball caught in the air by any fielder (including the catcher) is a pop out (or fly out, which is scored the same).Major League Baseball rules define a foul tip as follows:A FOUL TIP is a batted ball that goes sharp and direct from the bat to the catcher's hands and is legally caught. It is not a foul tip unless caught and any foul tip that is caught is a strike, and the ball is in play. It is not a catch if it is a rebound, unless the ball has first touched the catcher's glove or hand.Many people were taught that a foul tip is anything that does not go over the batter's head, or that does not go at least six feet high, but those criteria are not in the rule book.

What kind of poem describes the passing of something?
Love. If you fall someone catches you (someone helps you and falls in love with you) then he/she decides they don't want you any more, so they pass you on, continuing to fall until another catches you and until you stop falling you are passed along a line.
