I've read this entire subject/post and still can't picture the scenario of ball passing thru strike zone and hitting a batter out of the strike zone. What am I missing?

How does the ball get out of the zone and "hit" the batter? Gawd, I must be getting old.

Is the batter on the edge of the plate with their body but still outside the zone (crowding)? If this is the case "any" movement would seem to put the batter "in" the zone or "further away" from the zone based on what they do.....swinging, bunting, trying to get out of the way, whatever.

Splain please.......give me the scenario where this happened.
