Baseball scoring questions from a historic umpiring guide

A reader asks when a pitched ball contacting the bat counts as a hit and how baserunning advances are scored. The guide replies that any ball hit by the bat remains in play, with specifics on crouching, the moment of hit, pursuing third base, forced outs, and scoring a triple nullified by certain outs. It also notes that a base runner cannot be put out by the ball if the runner breaks the base in certain forced plays.
