BAT contacting plate during swing
NFHS:
0-2 count.
Low pitch, batter swings downward, bat hits the plate and the ball, ball is foul. I call foul ball, but the coach screams (literally) that the bat hit the plate and the batter is out.
I know STEPPING on the plate is illegal, as is stepping OUT of box... but the bat contacting the plate??? I told the coach I had never heard that rule...
