I'm going to begin a search through my various references for the answer, but in the meantime I'll pose the question here:
OBR
Batter runs up in an apparent attempt to slap hit. However, he lays off the pitch, and the pitch hits him while he is out of the batter's box. The pitch had no chance to become a strike, and you believe the batter did not intentionally allow the ball to hit him.
According to the literal language of the book, the batter would be awarded 1B, but I'm wondering whether anyone knows different.
