THIRD STRIKE

Question
ASA RULES, start with one and one count, one foul to give.  Player gets a strike called and then hits foul ball.  Next one has to be hit fair.  If player hits foul ball down left feel line, is it considered a dead ball if  the ball is caught or lands on the ground?  If ball is caught can runners advance?

Answer
Hi Tommy,

Well you deviate from ASA by allowing a CF.  If all other things are equal with ASA if a foul ball lands on the ground it is dead and w/ 2 strikes the batter is out.  If caught w/ less than 2 outs no matter the # of strikes it is live and runners can tag and advance.
