Most batted balls are hit before the pitch gets to the plate. With runners, does that make them balks instead? I mean, if the batter flies out he didn't reach 1st safely so you enforce the balk - right?
The pitch ends when the batter hits the ball (and I think we can assume that means hits with the bat).
And after I told you to not take it seriously . . . .
