I watched a bizarre play unfold tonight at a Kentucky high school game. I will preface the scenario by saying that they require a few positions to wear a fielding mask...
Batter hits a foul ball near the third base dugout. Third baseman tosses her mask to the side and proceeds to catch the ball for the third out. Coach proceeds to question the call as players get ready for the next half inning. Umpire warns the coach and he heads back to his dugout. I am fairly confident the umpires in this scenario got it wrong... "and [batter] shall return to the plate and the play shall be treated as a foul ball."
Ever seen anything like this?
