Question
Is it still a rule in slow pitch softball that if you foul off the third strike you are out?

Answer
Thanks for the question!

Typically, yes. However some leagues add a foul to waste. In other words, when the batter gets two strikes and fouls one off, then the next ball must go fair. ASA by the book is a foul on 2 strikes is an out. In fast pitch they get as many fouls as they need, just like baseball.

Hope this answers your question! If not, feel free to ask again!
