Intentionally hitting a batter is called "dotting them." It comes from the concept of dotting the I on their uniform. Very few high school pitchers have the level of command to dot a hitter. Therefore, it becomes a dangerous act. I'm betting a high school coach could lose his job and charged with battery if it was proved he ordered it.

Slashing is legal. I'm not a fan of it. But you have to figure out a way to deal with it from a pitching approach and defensively.
