Thank you all for the feedback. I will defer to all of your judgments. I stand corrected. I read Fed Rule 2-9-1 as a pitch which hits the ground but handled cleanly by the catcher on a 3rd strike in not a clean catch but the BR now must be tagged or forced at 1st. My partner was correct. By the way, the count was full with two outs and the runner was going from 1st which is what you would expect. The throw from the catcher sailed into CF and the runner took 3rd. The next batter struck out.
