What would the scorebook of a batted ball hitting the batter be?
HBP by first base...
Another answer: HBP (Hit By Pitch) would only apply to a pitched ball, not a batted ball.
If a batted ball hits the batter while the ball is in foul territory, it is simply a foul ball. If a batted ball hits the batter while the ball is in fair territory, it would be scored as an out by interference with the catcher being credited with the putout.

What is the obstruction rule in softball?
This rule states that if a defensive player does not have the ball, she cannot stop the runner from reaching the next base. She could stop the player by standing in her way, or putting her leg down to block a slide before she has the ball to tag her out. A catcher can also block the plate by not allowing the runner a clear path to the plate when they do not have the ball. If a player does have the ball, they are allowed to block the bases though.

What is the difference between Fantasy and Roto Baseball?
Fantasy Baseball is more general, as it refers to any type of fantasy competition in baseball. Roto is a type of such a competition, as opposed to head-to-head.
Roto is short for rotisserie, which translates stats of your players into points, and the team in your league with the most points wins.
Rotisserie Baseball was the original and played a 4x4 format for its league. It was started in New York City about 1980. Most of its members loved to play Strat-o-Matic as boys and this took its place in many cases. Today, thanks to computerized stats, fantasy baseball can take on many more statistical categories and can be played head to head as well.
