You are correct for that part of the question. However, the question had two parts, only one of which was true. Here is the question broken into its two parts:
1. The ball becomes dead immediately when a batted ball, while
on foul ground, first touches the catcher's glove or hand.
2. The ball becomes dead immediately when a batted ball, while
over foul ground, first touches the catcher's glove or hand.
Part 1 is True, Part 2 is False. Therfore, the entire question must be false.
This concludes today's lesson.......
(didn't we just have a similar discussion earlier this week?)
