A ball lodged in catcher's equipment is dead, 5-1-1g5.
Award all runners one base from TOP (the batter is now a runner because of an uncaught 3rd strike.) 8-3-3d
BR ends up on 1st base. (unless 1st was occupied)

Quick hint: for most situations you come across the answer is in the "Dead Ball Tables" found in rule 5. If you learn that table and the Baserunning Awards Table in rule 8 most coaches will think you are an expert.
