Foul Tip of Foul ball

[Dave Davies]

Happened last night at LLWS

2 strikes. Pitched ball hits the dirt, then swung on. Ball hits bat and goes sharp and direct to the catchers mitt.

Foul Tip or Foul Ball?

Pro interp reads that a ball that strikes the ground and swung on can't be considered as caught strike 3. Also, a ball that hits the the ground and is then struck by the bat shall be considered as a ball In Flight. If this ball In Flight is caught by the catcher directly from the bat, is it a foul tip?

3rd World, I know. Just curious.
