Question
Guest Coach Darryle
I had this "discussion" a few days ago. A pop us is hit down the 3rd base line behind 3rd base. The 3rd baseman has both feet inside fair territory, the ball looks like it is going foul, but the 3rd baseman tries to catch it and it goes off of his glove and lands in foul territory. I'm claiming the ball is now fair. Others are saying it is a foul ball. Who is right? I also claim that it doesn't even matter if it was in the infield and it happened.

Tell people this is baseball not football - in baseball it matters where the ball is, in football it matters where the feet are.
