This can be a tough one to call because it adds insult to injury, but it’s a strike even though the batter was hit by the pitch. 4. A. (Rule 2.00, Definition of “Ball”). A pitch that hits the ground on the way to the plate is still a pitch and is a live ball. 5. A. (Rule 2.00, Definition of “Fair Ball”). Whether a ball is fair or foul is determined by the position of the ball, not the fielder. 6. C. (Rule 2.00, Definition of “Strike”). A strike is still a strike even if the batter leans into it. 7. A. (Rule 6.08(b)). By rule the batter must make an attempt to avoid getting hit by the pitch. Assuming the pitch was not in the strike zone, it is a ball. 8. False. This is a foul tip, and the ball is in play. 9. B. (Rule 7.08). 10. B. (Rule 2.00, Definition of “Tag”). SCORING: 9-10: MAJOR LEAGUE UMP. Great job! You’re ready to play! 6-8: UMP IN TRAINING.
