Here, the JEA states that if the batter is in a legal batting position, he gets first base. According to this logic, the batter does not get the award.
Situations: The batter is standing in the batter's box and a pitched ball grazes the sleeve of his undershirt but not his arm. Does this entitle him to first base?
RULING: Yes. If he or his clothing is touched while in a legal batting position, he is awarded first base.
