They said the ball would just be dead in all instances. If it was a 2-0 count for example and the pitch was a ball, the count would be 3-0 and no runners would advance on the bases. However, if it was 1-2 and the pitch was a strike but uncaught and then lodged in the catcher's chest protector, the batter would be awarded 1B and other runners would stay put unless forced to advance. I was sitting there thinking "what is going on?"
