Having seen it live, I don't thinks he was trying to duck out of the way. It looked like she was basically head butting the ball. I guess the context helps too, having watched her throughout the game (very stereotypical diva pitcher). I actually think she ducked INTO the ball. I wish I had another angle.
Things can look very different live, from other angles, and in other contexts. There is no way by the video I would say she didn’t attempt to move or deliberately moved into the ball.
So what was the ruling on the field?
