ditto to:
- the batter intentionally stuck her arm into the pitch
- better to emphasize that action in your sell as opposed to the location of the pitch outside of the batter's box
- Don't take it personally, or even as a comment on your call;
- you saw the batter lean into the pitch, that alone is cause to not award the base regardless of the location of the ball.
But even though covered, I had to say so.
