If B1 is leaning in over the plate attempting to run before making contact while in the strike zone and gets hit with the pitch, ball is dead and B1 is staying in the box, unless strike 3.
It seems in your sitch, the batter made contact with the pitch, not visa versa.
Maybe a HTBT.

I agree with you, I have never heard of a Right Hander drag bunting the ball. ??????? But , I could be learnded.

I wouldn't call it a drag bunt either but I have seen many RH's moving towards 1B as they contact the ball, usually pushing the ball up the 1b line on the bunt. This move don't work too good on inside pitches, and maybe the pitcher/catcher had an idea that he might bunt and that's why the pitch went to the inside corner.
