Reply to "Dropped 3d strike"

hospo22Member

I have a question I hope someone can answer.
My question is this:

There is no outs and no one on base. Its a 2-2 pitch the batter swings at a ball in the dirt the ball bounce and the catcher clearly catches after it hits the ground and the batter swings and misses. Does the catcher have to tag or throw down to first to record the out.

I guess to simplify - technically its not a droped 3rd strike but the ball hit the ground as the batter swings.

What is rule?
