in MLB rules, there is no such thing as "being out for thowing your bat". This is a rule imposed at lower levels for the safety of the players
If the batter is hit while still holding the bat across the plate attempting to bunt, then it is called a strike. But, if the batter pulls back the bat and gets hit by the pitch then he goes to first with a HBP.
The base hit is credited to the replacement batter.
The batter must be inside the batting box up until the point after the ball makes contact with the bat. Batters must wear helmets with little caged masks. If a ball is thrown to a hard-to-hit spot that is not in the "batting zone," then the batter does not have to swing. That is called a ball. If the batter gets four balls thrown against them, then it is considered a "walk," where the batter gets to first base automatically. If the pitcher throws the ball to a hittable area, it is called a strike, regardless of if the batter swings or not. If the batter gets 3 strikes, they are out. Foul balls count as strikes unless there are already 2 strikes; then the batter stays up to bat until they hit it fair, strikeout, or get walked. 3 outs end the inning and the teams switch places.
It was hit back to her on a line drive by the batter with a bat.
This is the number of times a batter gets up to bat. Meaning each time a batter goes to the plate and either gets a hit, takes a walk or makes an out.
Base on balls is a walk. So, A girl is up to bat and she gets 4 balls. She goes to first. Her at-bat is now over. And now its time for the on-deck hitter to hit.
Of course. They did Bat you in to score. How you got on base to begin with doesn't matter.
No.
The batting average is the percent of times a batter gets a successful hit per official times at bat. It is determined by dividing the hits by the times at bat, i. e. times at bat 10; hits 3. 3 divided by 10 gives you a .300 batting average, or the batter gets a hit 30% of the times he has an official at bat. Base on balls (walks), sacrifice hits, sacrifice flies, hit by pitch ball, and catcher interference do not count as an official at bat.
This is ruled a Fielder's Choice (FC) in the scorebook. The batter is charged an at-bat, with no hit issued.
Hit by the pitch, sacrifice, base on balls and I believe catcher's interference
A sport where you hit a baseball with a bat & the pitcher throws the ball
