so with it being said that its still a live ball if it contacts the ground in front of the plate and its a HBP- how about a swinging strike 3 call on a ball bouncing in front of the plate where the catcher picks it up on the bounce?
In USSSA (not sure ASA, I'm only red)the batter is allowed to run if 1st is unoccupied even if the catcher picks it up.
I've heard many coaches argue this rule should be revisited and give benefit to the catcher.
