i actually had this event in my game the other night. It was where the kid could of been interpreted as in the act of swinging or in the act of dien out of the pitch...
the count was 3 balls 2 strikes on the home team batter, and two outs in the bottom of the sixth with the visiting team leading.
i ruled it as he was trying to make an effort to get out of the way of the pitch while being hit and sent him to first. some said i should of called him out.
calling the batter out on a pitch like this would of ended the game
