Good story...but now I'm curious...if the pitcher flubs the pitch and throws it into the ground, but it travels past the plate, then it is an 'uncaught' pitch by virtue of it hitting the ground before the catcher snares it...eligible for 'uncaught third strike' rule if all other conditions are met. But what if the pitch has no chance of making to the plate and the batter swings with all other conditions rmet for 'uncaught third strike' rule and before blue declares 'no pitch'. Is this allowed?
