If the ball hits the ground before the catcher catches it, then the batter becomes a batter runner if it is the third strike with less than two outs and first base is unoccupied, or if it is two outs and first base is occupied or unoccupied. ASA Rule 8:1:B.

Does anyone know if the dropped 3 strike rule is the same for Federation Baseball?

It is for NFHS FP softball. Can't say for baseball. I am sure some of the folks on the baseball board can tell you.
