What don't you understand by "swing"? If the batter offers at a pitch, it's a SWING.

If the batter swings before the ball hits the ground, it's a legal swing, and a strike if missed. If the ball his the ground before the swing, it's a ball and dead in most books. In SCMAF (Southern California Municipal Athletic Association), the batter is out if he/she swings after the pitch hits the ground.

Cliff Claven was the know-it-all on "Cheers".
