| When I am wrong, I am willing to admit it. For those who are wondering, I thought that if a ball bounds in foul territory first and then into play, it was a foul ball. I was wrong! I was so curious, that I looked it up...here is what I found.
INFIELD GROUND BALLS
Ground balls that bound between home and first, or home and third are a little tricky. The ball is not ruled fair or foul, until the ball comes to a stop, is touched by a fielder, or goes past first or third base.
The ball may zig-zag, back-and-forth, between fair and foul ground an unlimited number of times. The ruling of fair or foul is not made until the ball finally comes to a stop, or is touched, or goes past first or third base.
I stand corrected,
