I know that you could probably never get by not calling it a strike. Batters rarely stand even with the plate, in fact most of the ones I see in slow pitch stand in near the back of the batters box. The rule is a natural stance even with the plate, if my front knee is about 18" off the ground, back shoulder about 60". I don't have a wide stance and I don't crouch, therefore going by rule the ball would have to pass over some part of the plate at 18" high up to the height of my back shoulder at 60" - It doesn't matter where I actually stand in the batters box. Am I interpretting the rule correctly?
