I think so. Had one this year with a runner stealing. Defensive coach heard the "tink." He started to yell something about it being foul, when he saw my partner make a foul tip signal. In one nice move the signal says, "Yes. It was off the bat. Yes. It was sharp and direct to F2's glove. Yes. It was legally caught."
