I did not see the play, but the pitch was described as being low and outside. How did such a pitch manage to hit the batter either once or twice, if it did not hit the bat? (someone has said the ruling was missed third strike on swing, and not caught by F2) Did it deflect off of the catcher toward the batter? I can't imagine that kind of deflection off of just the ground. In any event, it would also seem that it would be very difficult for PU to follow the ball through such a tortured path, and that a request for help may have actually been helpful.
