I had to have a colleague give me an eye exam to make sure I read that right. Wow.

A batter 'has to get out of the way' of a pitched ball in order for a HbP award to be considered.

I learned last night that if the runner is "leaning" back toward 3rd base even though she hasnt moved her feet she has made her decision as to which way she is going and cant be called out for a look back violation.

My last tournament, I learned, again, that the plate umpire can overide any call by the base umpire. The fans were adamant on this point, the correct call by the base umpire not withstanding.
