what is the definition of a catch (some players throw the ball immediately they catch it)

Thanks Steve... I was wondering, when they throw the ball just as they catch it. but it has to be undercontrol...... thats fine

to add to steve's answer the fielder that finally catches it does not have to be tha same one that first touches it.

When they catch it and the throw it, that in fact demonstrates that they have it under control.
