I think that the OP said she swung at the ball like slap. But since I was not there I can only picture in my mind's eye what happened bases upon the description.
I believe that the intent to hit or not to hit is irrelevant here,
if she swung the bat though the strike zone and
then carried it around her back and hit the ball the second time the bat passed though the shrike zone -- I got a swing and a miss and a dead ball for hitting the ball on the follow through.
I hope that clears up any misunderstandings on what I was saying.
