strike two or foul out???

[TOP DOG]

If the batter tips the ball , or fouls the ball off, as long as it is caught before it hits the ground it is an out. it can refleck of another player and still be called out, fair or foul

Most umpires I believe and have seen interpret and call it this way:
1)Catcher catches a foul tip clean 3-2 count- your out
2)Catcher bobbles a foul tip 3-2 count -foul ball
Do you think most of these umps we work with can see if the ball nicked the catcher's glove first before ricoceting off her equipment? We might be asking a little to much.

The devil will be in the detail. Because you are presenting foul tip in laymans terms, ie any type of ball that makes a sound of contacting a bat and then generally makes its way behind the batter.

That is not a foul tip for a rules discussion. A foul tip must go sharply and directly from the bat to the glove and must be caught or it is not a foul tip at all. A foul tip in FP and BB is ALWAYS a strike and a live ball and is always an out with 2 strikes.
