Actually, if it is in the strike zone, it is a dead ball strike regardless of whether the uni is tucked in or not or whether you told her or not

Well, let's rethink that.

If you have decided NOT to call a hit batter if the ball hits only a loose shirt that was supposed to be tucked in, then why would you call dead ball? It is either a ball or a strike, depending on location, but it should still be live.

What I decided (postulated) was to judge no attempt to avoid, not to pretend she was not hit.

My point was that I might be convinced her shirt (and thus she) was in the strike zone even if I might not have thought so otherwise. That loose shirt might have obscurred my vision and made me see strike zone where it might not really have been!

When the batter is hit by a pitched ball the ball is dead .
Then decide on giving a base , strike and so on .
What is the ruling for ASA .

That is the same for all I am aware of.
