legal catch - out of bounds

[greymule]

The operative word is falls. OBR requires a fall into DBT, not a step like Fed (not sure about NCAA). Should a player catch a ball and then enter the dugout but remain on his feet, the ball is in play. He can throw somebody out.

Twenty years ago, I asked a soon-to-be MLB umpire whether a player could catch a ball, hurdle the fence, and throw the ball from "Row F" as long as he remained on his feet. His answer was yes.

Unless things have changed, I believe this still to be the (very unlikely) case.
