If the batter is trying to get away from the pitch and puts his hand between himself and the ball, he's still trying to get away. HBP

However, I've seen the occasion where the batter is NOT in the path of the ball and the batter reflexively puts his hand up into the path of the ball (that wouldn't have hit him had he not done so). Ball.
