Hey Ozzy, check it out. He posted again apologizing for the wrong terminology.
The bottom line is that if the ball was first touched in foul territory, it was foul. If first touched in fair, then it was fair. The umpire obviously ruled that it was a fair ball, so in his judgment, the ball was touched by the catcher while over fair territory.
Spectator, the entire plate is in fair territory, and the foul lines extend out from the back point of the plate.
