In the generating play:
1. The pitch is not a strike.
2. It is the fourth ball.
ERGO:
The batter is awarded first.
What is difficult about this?

Is that what you think the intent of the rule is? If F1 throws a cock-shot, but B1 sticks his hand in front of the plate and knocks down the ball before it enters the strikezone, it should be a ball? Somehow I have a hard time envisioning the rules makers thinking that is the correct call.
