"Why was she not awarded 1st base??The ball hit her on the hands and almost took her head off...
The only thing I can think is that the unmpire thought she was attempting to bunt at the ball...."
Did you see the bat move forward? I think I saw it move forward. That movement was an attempt to hit the ball - defensively hit it maybe, but still an attempt to hit the ball. Good call.
As for the other HBP, I had to leave the room, so I didn't see that one. I know that listening to the announcers is risky at best, but even they said that the batter moved into the ball.
I thought they did well last night. Each was where he needed to be when he needed to be there. That was the first game I've gotten to watch of this year's series.
