In baseball, a foul ball is a batted ball that lands on foul territory between home plate and first base or third base, bounds past first or third base on or over third territory, first touches foul territory beyond first or third base, or touches a player, umpire or any object not part of the playing field while over foul territory. The first two foul balls of any one batter's at-bat count as strikes, but a batter cannot be gain his third strike and be declared "out" on a foul ball.
