Well, if you are going to rule a strike just because the batter moves the bat accross the plate, you better start calling it a strike when there is an outside pitch and the batter releases the bat from the ready position and it swings down in front of their body past the plate.

Call that one, and every player and coach will tell you that the batter didn't attempt to actually hit the ball, so it cannot be a strike.
