Balls which don't go directly in the air from pitcher's hand to catcher's glove without touching anything but air are not caught for the purpose of the uncaught (or dropped) third strike rule. (Yes, that includes the bat, as the foul tip rule is not the same rule application; that is a caught foul tip for strike three, NOT a caught strike three).

I've always thought a foul tip was the same as a strike except for having to signal that it was not a foul ball. Are you saying that a caught foul tip on a third strike is an U3K and the batter can advance to 1st?
