EXPLAINER: What exactly is a check-swing?

(AP Photo/Jed Jacobsohn) (Jed Jacobsohn)SAN FRANCISCO — (AP) — It’s always been one of the most murky areas in baseball: What exactly constitutes a check-swing? So how far does a big league hitter have to go with his swing in order for a pitch to be called a strike? Don't bother looking for it in the Official Baseball Rules: Amazingly, in the nearly 200 pages that govern Major League Baseball, there's no mention of how to decide. By rule, judgment calls are not reviewable under Major League Baseball replay rules and there's not been any movement to change that. When it happened live I thought he went, so that’s why I called it a swing,” Morales said.
