"sum 1 told me this and i dont belive it but when u r outside the batting box and the pitcher pitchs it and its a strike it dosent count right?"
It depends. Was the ball live or dead? Was the batter in the box and stepped out as the pitcher started his motion (the pitch counts -- and in FED it will be a strike no matter where the pitfch is), or did the pitcher pitch before the batter entered the box (no pitch / quick pitch)?
My reply was similiar. "It depends on whether the umpire has called granted time or not."

Thanks Bob.
