Reply to "Line drive hits the pitching plate"

Don't think FUNGO was saying the pitcher's plate is a foreign object. He was just quoting the rule. The pitcher's plate is irrelevant. If a pop-up with sifficient back-spin landed at the mound then rolled into foul territory without being touched in fair it would be a foul ball. The relevance is that the ball went foul before passing first or third base, not whether or not it hit the pitcher's plate.
