Smile rule 3.1.4 and G29 Clarification

hi everyone,
I need a clarification for a part from rule 3.1.4 that says:

A CATCH occurs when a BALL SCORED over the TRUSS by a ROBOT’S ALLIANCE partner is POSSESSED by that ROBOT before contacting the carpet, the ROBOT which SCORED the TRUSS, or HUMAN PLAYER.

I didnt really understand this part and I would love for some help

the second rule is G29 that says:

An ALLIANCE may not pin an opponent ROBOT for more than five (5) seconds. A ROBOT will be considered pinned until the ROBOTS have separated by at least six (6) ft. The pinning ROBOT(S) must then wait for at least three (3) seconds before attempting to pin the same ROBOT again. Pinning is transitory through other objects.

is this rule applies if the intire ALLIANCE pin a robot or even if 1 ROBOT pins an opponent robot?
