You're putting words in my mouth. I never ever said it was legal for the batter to throw his bat
at the catcher. I said it was legal for the batter to attempt to hit any pitch, even if he has to toss his bat
at the ball. There is nothing written anywhere that says a batter cannot attempt to hit pitch-outs.
Besides, if the catcher only moved sideways for the pitch-out as they normally do, it would be an easy call if the batter threw his bat and hit him--batter's interference all the way. That is probably why catchers move that way to begin with.
