If I'm a pitcher and I want to throw at somebody I'm aiming at the biggest piece of him I can find. For players not named Barry Bonds that's usually their butt.

As an umpire I may rule 'intent' if a pitch is up and in, depending on what preceded the incident. I have a hard time seeing intent when the batter was hit in the lower leg.
