interesting day

Interesting day: two HS games, none of the pitchers particularly sharp, but generally in control along with very good defense. Enough so that only 8 runs scored between all 4 teams. Both games were decided by walk-off home runs; bottom of the 7th and bottom of the 8th.

A question came up. The "new" rule says that a batter does not have to avoid if HBP within the batters box. The batter, while trying to avoid the pain anyway, moves the bat forward. Do we count that as an attempt to hit or does the "in the batters box" rule take precedence?

I think we discussed this before, but I can't figure out what to search for.
