A famous instance of a non-hit by pitch was on May 31, 1968, when Don Drysdale hit Dick Dietz with a pitch that would have forced in a run and ended Drysdale's scoreless innings streak at 44. If the batter does not attempt to avoid the pitch, he is not awarded first base, and the pitch is ruled either a strike if in the strike zone or a ball if out of the strike zone. In the case where a batter swings and the pitch hits him anyway, the ball is dead and a strike is called. Rule 5.09(a) further clarifies that a hit by pitch is also called when a pitch touches a batter's clothing. If all these conditions are met, the ball is dead, and other baserunners advance if they are forced to vacate their base by the batter taking first. and he attempts to avoid it (or had no opportunity to avoid it),.is touched by a pitched ball outside the strike zone,.Per baseball official rule 5.05(b), a batter becomes a baserunner and is awarded first base when he or his equipment (except for his bat): The rule dates from 1887 before that, a pitch that struck the batter was merely a ball. Being hit by a pitch is often caused by a batter standing too close to, or "crowding", home plate. A hit batsman is awarded first base, provided that (in the plate umpire's judgment) he made an honest effort to avoid the pitch, although failure to do so is rarely called by an umpire. In baseball, hit by pitch ( HBP) is an event in which a batter or his clothing or equipment (other than his bat) is struck directly by a pitch from the pitcher the batter is called a hit batsman ( HB). Baseball event in which the batter is hit by the pitched ball Joe Crede of the Chicago White Sox after being hit by a pitch
