"A batted ball not touched by a fielder, which hits the pitcher's rubber and rebounds into foul territory, between home and first, or between home and third base is a foul ball."
Foul ball. Ball is dead and everyone goes back to their time-of-pitch base.

Foul ball! All runners go back to their previous bases...ball never goes past the 3rd base or 1st base side on fair territory!

Yea, as everone elce said, the rule is if it hits the mound and goes out of bounds it is foul.

Don't go to Richard's blog -- he is completely wrong. It's a foul ball.

Both of the runs score.
