If catcher moves forward to catch this pitch out and gets in the way of the bat - and I truly believe the bat-throw was an attempt to hit the pitch ... why wouldn't CO apply? (I grant you that if the catcher merely moved sideways and the thrown bat went somewhat backward, I'd be hard pressed to "truly believe" it was an attempt to hit the pitch.)
