I'm confused about the definition of a "hit" in baseball as stated on the web page. The article conveys a message that a player gets a hit if he reaches first base before any fielder can either tag him with the ball, tag first base while carrying the ball, or throw to a teammate covering first base. What isn't explained is that on a fielder's choice or a long fly ball, the batter could touch first base without a fielder touching him with the ball or the ball even going to first base. Am I not correct?
