What is your interpretation of avoiding being hit by a pitch, I had a batter turn his inside shoulder in toward the plate and was hit by the ball. He made no attempt to vacate out of the batting box. Batters feet never moved either. The coach said that is the way they are training the kids.

If the batter is lookin' for a way out and not for a way to first, that can work for me.

Would you have a reference for a ball call where the BR is attempting to avoid?
