A pitched ball (curve ball) hits dirt in front of home plate. Ball bounces up towards the plate. BAtter then hits ball into fair terratory, scoots into second for a stand up double. IS this legal?

Of course!
 

This is legal every level, every place, ...even legal in Cricket.
But, then you probably already knew that didn't ya? ;)

<i>Uh, maybe not in Tee-ball.</i>

Mick has it correct. Just for your own information, this is covered under OBR Rule 2.00 Definition of A BALL.

Hope this helps

Cheers

Nope, I don't call cricket anything but interesting. But, from what I saw, in my only one cricket "pick-up" game, ya need to get a whole bunch of people on a big field for the sake of having fun.

I remember some yelling and finger-pointing seems to be required between the players. ;)
