If the pitch was called a 3rd strike, and the catcher loses the ball, the batter can try to make it to first before the catcher recovers and throws him out. It's still a strike out, but, the batter can still make it to first as a baserunner. One of those weird rules.
I studied Italian for 2 semesters. Not once was a "C" pronounced as a "G", and never was a trailing "I" ignored! And I'm from Jersey! lol
