If a hitter is struck by a pitch while in the batter’s box, she will be awarded first base regardless if she tried to avoid being struck by the ball. Previously, the umpire had to judge whether the batter in the box tried to avoid being hit by the pitch. The umpire still can keep the batter in the box if, in his/her judgment, the batter initiated the contact by trying to get hit by the pitch.
Anybody think this wasn't a coach's idea?
I believe this was submitted by the SUIP and not coach's. It was not voted in and will not be in the 2010 rule book.

I believe it was a proposal submitted by the NCAA rules committee (which is comprised of coaches and institutional administrators)...but subsequently not approved by the NCAA Playing Rules Oversite Panel. So it won't be in the 2010 rule book.
