I thought its used more for like say the pitcher is pounding in your cold area. You defensive swing a pitch until you get a pitch you like, strike out or walk. I have seen Manny Ramirez do this just about every at bat. You pitch him something he doesnt like, he will just foul it off until you mess up or he does.

People are so quick to jump the gun on things.
