OK on the 3rd strike of an at bat the pitch gets pst the catcher, is this a WP or a passed ball. can a pitch be a stike and a WP at the same time ?
I have always belived that it was scord as K for the pitcher and a error on the catcher.


R1, one out, batter swings at pitch which F2 misplays, R1 advances to 2B..Strike/passed ball.
Same situation, only pitch is wide and F2 cannot reach it..Strike/wild pitch.

Two strikes, batter swings and misses, BR reaches 1B:
A..F2 cannot catch ball..K/passed ball.
B..Pitch is wide, F2 cannot reach..K/wild pitch.
No error charged in either example.
