All catches, with the sole exception of a foul tip, can be trapped or ricochet off a player and equipment, as long as it is ultimately caught by definition. The exception isn't that it started as a pitch, it is only for a foul tip.
I think you meant what would have been a foul tip, except it went directly to the catcher's equipment instead of glove or hand. If caught (by F2 or anyone else) it is merely a foul ball.

The foul tip can be caught after it hits the catcher's equipment, so long as it hit the glove or hand first.
