Mens Orthodox Fastpitch, I'm doing the game solo. R1, R3, outs don't matter, 2-1 count on batter.
R1 is off with the pitch. Inside pitch coming straight at my eyes, batter swings, I hear the tick and look down to see the ball in the catchers glove. I signal strike and foul tip. Catcher looks back at me and says "It hit the ground". I never saw the ball hit the ground and don't have a partner to check with. I give the catcher a little shrug and tell him that I thought he caught it thus foul tip, runner safe at second. Just then batter says, "Yea it did hit the ground". OK, good enough for me; I send the runner back to first.
Was nice to see.
