passed ball

This is win the catcher is unable to catch a pitch and the base runner(s) are able to move up a base or maybe even to score a run. When a batter swings and it is strike 3, and the catcher does not catch the ball, then the batter can run toward first base and if the catcher does not throw him out, then he will be safe, even though it was strike 3.
