I understand your logic behind THEY wanting us to, but I don't understand why it has to be done on strike three. The prinicple stated above is still correct. If the umpire doesn't call a dead ball, it's live and in play, the batter swung on a third strike so she's out. Maybe something different about it being the third strike exists but is slipping my mind.

I believe this was discussed over on the baseball side quite a while back, with many people's view being tcan's. I think the consensus ended up being, that's how THEY want it done, so that's how WE do it.
