In other words, if the batter shows zero attempt to pull back, I'll probably see an attempt.
I'm on with this interp. Placing the bat over the plate..

1) Trying to adjust the D (as in feint and hit) - good baseball.
2) Trying to distract F1/F2 - guess who else gets distracted, PU, you think this is good?

If you have your bat anywhere the pitch when it comes in, Steeeeeerikorino.
