New to Slo-Pitch! The K Zone

[curious]

Speaking ASA

Any pitch in which any part of the ball crosses any part of the plate when it passes above the front knee, but below the back shoulder of the batter as they would be standing adjacent to the plate should be ruled a strike.

Don't care where it hits the ground as long as it doesn't touch the plate.


I've always called it a ball but what would you call if the ball comes in at an angle, crosses the front corner and lands on the side of the plate? Slow pitch that is. This for some reason has always bugged me. Please ease my mind with a good explanation. Thanks and great site.
