Nope - it went off the bat handle and hit Jeter's hip - in the box - foul ball.

Try and get this right working one man where we do nearly 60% of our summer ball.

Nearly every time, I'm awarding the batter 1B...frankly, I'm not that good to tell the difference between determining what hit what first or not.

Why would your first instinct be to award the guy first "nearly every time"?

Because the pitch doesn't belong in the batter's box.

I always give the benefit of a doubt to the batter in this situation. Like Rich said the pitch doesn't belong in the batter box!

I agree with Rich it hit the hip. The dumb announcers were calling it a fair ball.
