Casebook Comment to Rule 6.05(a) has been added to prohibit fielders from catching a ball in the dugout. (fielders may no longer enter the dugout to make a catch.) Fielders may still reach into the dugout to make a catch but they may no longer step into the dugout to do so. Casebook Comment to Rule 7.04(c) amended to delete reference allowing catch to be made in dugout.

the MLB players union has not yet voted that rule change into effect (as of my publication on 3/11/06) so any MLB "red book" will probably still have the interpretation that the catch is allowed in the dugout.
