Baseball Library.com says White Sox centerfielder Johnny Mostil once caught a foul ball in a spring training game. http://www.baseballlibrary.com/baseballlibrary/ballplayers/M/Mostil_Johnny.stm
If the black 8 ball is the object ball and a foul occurs during the shot, the game is over. This foul is loss of game.
It depends on how the game is being played. Most of the time, foul balls don't count as a strike; you can hit a ton of foul balls while you're up to bat and it won't matter. If you're playing a strict game of baseball, though, if you go up to bat and hit two foul balls, they count as strikes. Then, if you miss the ball or whatever, that would be your third strike. And you're out. :) Foul balls count as strikes when every the batter does not have two strikes, once a batter gets two strikes foul balls are no longer counted as strikes.
When a batter hits a ball but it goes outside the white lines (these line up with 3rd and 1st base)it is called a "foul ball" and it counts as a strike. However if the batter already has 2 strikes it does not count as anything because you can not "strike out" on a foul ball. You cannot have a foul ball on a bunt attempt if you have two strikes, however, as that is considered an out.
over the back.
Hitting the same woman twice during that epic run of 19 foul balls, Richie Ashburn also hit a foul ball that landed on a ledge above the window of the press box; the next foul ball knocked off the previous one and they both fell. I was there that day -- it was the only Phillies game I ever attended.
If the game is 8 ball, this is a foul that results in loss of game under most rules.
by commiting a bad tackle or a hand ball.
No. It is a foul; a foul on a pocketed black means that you actually lose the game.
The team that did not recieve the technical foul, picks a shooter, and then shoot two foul shots, then the team that got to shoot the foul shots get the ball on the side out of bounds.
No, the 8 ball must be potted on it's own, potting it with another ball is a foul. ADD: Technically correct, but not complete...potting it with another ball is a foul, but as the rules state, pocketing the 8 ball on a foul is loss of game.
Yes. On August 24, 2011, the home run king made a rare appearance at a San Francisco Giants home game and caught a foul ball while sitting in the stands.
