| July 2010 plays and clarifications. If the batter prevented the ball from entering the strike zone, it is a dead ball strike. If the batter attempted to avoid or did not have time to make an attempt to avoid it is a hit by pitch and award 1st base. If the batter made no attempt to avoid, it is a dead ball, add a ball to count and keep batter at bat.
