There is also the following from 6.08(b)
6.08 The batter becomes a runner and is entitled to first base without liability to be put out (provided he advances to and touches first base) when_
(b) He is touched by a pitched ball which he is not attempting to hit
APPROVED RULING: When the batter is touched by a pitched ball which does not entitle him to first base, the ball is dead and no runner may advance.
Taken together with all the others, it is clear.
