wouldnt you treat this situation just as you would if an umpire called a fair ball foul? someone is going to be pissed while someone is getting a break. you live with your mistake, take your a$$ chewing and hopefully you dont do it again. like byron, I too used to say "Strike 3, batter out" until something like this very thing happened to me. I overheard the coach tell his batter no matter what you run to first anyway on a dropped third strike and force the defense to make a play. Thats when I knew I had to stop saying "batter out" on any third strike.

Now on a questionable strike three I will say this instead "Strike three, and thats a catch" or "Strike three, no catch, no catch".
