ASA, Fast Pitch, U12

Two outs, bases loaded, batter swings ad misses for strike three. Catcher drops the ball, batter runner takes off for first base. All runners begin to move forward. Does the catcher have a force play at the plate? Can the catcher simply step on the plate for the third out?

You betchem......

Same as any other play where runners are
forced to advanced. Step on home plate,
and in your case, oooout three.
