Exactly! Using his technique, umpires can help avoid liability. MLB umpires, who deal with players making millions of dollars, know the best thing to do is move the bat. They do it all of the time and they don't get in the way.
It is illogical to accept what other people are saying, which comes down to, "Don't move the bat because someone may get injured. Leave it in front of the plate where it is almost guaranteed to get in the way."
I'm glad that my torts professor wasn't an ASA clone.
