What was the call on the reversal on Altuve going to third? Looked like Brantley got HBP. Why wasn’t he awarded first if Altuve had to go back to second? I’m watching a stream with the sound off.

Brantley swung.  It's a strike and a dead ball.

He swung and missed
If you suck bad enough to swing and miss at a pitch and still get hit by it, it’s a strike
You don’t go to first base

It was the right call.  He swung.  No HBP if you swing.  And ball is dead once it hits him.
