check swing, ball hits batter in hand, goes fair...

[sleebo]

Hey guys. I'm pretty new to this area of the board, but not as new as my post # may suggest. I like to read and try to learn from the different threads. But I've got a question so here goes...
Pitch comes in high and tight on batter who starts to swing but successfully checks it. However, the ball hits the batter in the hand and rolls into fair territory. What do we have here? Thanks for your help. I look forward to learning from this board in the future.
