If we are going to be that specific about "swing at", it means that the bat must hit the ball or otherwise the batter did not swing at the ball but at some air molecule or mosquito or something. That means there can never be a swinging strike unless the ball is hit foul or foul tipped.
Do you ever swat a mosquito? Do you always hit it? Be assured, if you do not swat at the mosquito, you do not have the opportunity to hit the damn thing.

Thanks for proving my point.
