  • In baseball, a fair ball is a batted ball that has not yet become a foul ball, and that... * settles on fair ground between home and first base, or between home and third base, or * is on or over fair territory when bounding to the outfield past first or third base, or * touches first, second, or third base, or * touches the person of an umpire or player while the ball is on or over fair ground, or * passes out of the playing field in flight while over fair ground, or * touches any part of the fair pole, including an attached screen, in flight. It is possible for a ball moving in foul territory to become a fair ball. Batted balls can also be foul balls or foul tips. On a fair ball, the ball is alive; runners attempt to advance and fielders try to record outs. A batted ball is presumed to be fair until it is ruled a foul ball or a foul tip.
