I agree with you Mike, BUT, what about this act. R1 on first, stealing with the pitch. Batter swings on the release of the pitch, absolutely no intent to hit the ball, she's just trying to protect the runner. I have seen this happen often and it is always called a strike. I think trying to sell a no strike to the DC would be nearly impossible.
