Requirements for backcourt violation:
1. Team control (and player control established at some point initially if coming from a throw-in)
2. Ball achieves a frontcourt status
3. Team in control is the last to touch the ball before it achieves a backcourt status
4. Team in control is the first to touch the ball after it achieves a backcourt status
A controlled tap would HTBT...a bat doesn't sound like team/player control to me. You would have to judge if Team B had team control (one rule of thumb is to judge if you would have granted a time out for Team B with their "possession." ).
Now in NFHS/NCAA rule set, this means one would adjudicate the play similarly, as the rules are effectively the same...under NBA rules, this play could/would be judged differently...
