ASA Question

ASA Fastpitch Sit:

If a batter swings at a pitched ball that struck the ground PRIOR to reaching home plate and misses, is this a strike?

In Fastpitch this is a strike. In Slow Pitch any pitched ball that hits the ground or plate cannot be legally swung at by the batter. (Rule 7 SECTION 4 A, B, and D)

Yes, and if it was the third strike, it is an uncaught third strike.
