Watching the UNC / Fresno game something happened which got me thinking (I know - not a good thing).
Batter pops bunt up in foul territory and catcher is running after it. Just before it hits the ground he sticks his mask out and catches the ball.
Is this a legal catch? Would it be a legal catch when he switches the ball to his hand or glove?
Or is this illegal because it still falls under the can't use equipment - throwing a glove, throwing the mask - to stop the ball?
Thanks
