I can usually determine if in my judgment the batter offered at the pitch from B or C. I would say that 95% of the time I get the call right from the middle. I do not use the position of the bat as the major determining factor on a check swing. I use my judgment in deciding if the batter actually offered at the pitch, or managed to check his swing without doing so.
