I have seen comments on baseball side where if you swing ?, and are hit in the hands (even outside the strike zone) it is not a hit by pitch situation. I believe that was totally incorrect.

I was BSing with coach and the ump who had worked their game the night before.
They tell me of a call he made the night before... hbp, on hands... ruled foul/strike because hands part of bat - didnt swing and out of zone. _Coach AND the blue_ thought the call was correct so there was no disagreement during the game on the call. I'm not even so sure they believed me that they were both wrong.
I think I posted it here when it happened... but not sure.
