Frank,
Kinda of what I excepted as I don't think there really is a way to get it done without bringing the background more into focus. Assuming for the moment the distance to the batter is approx 50', the DOF using the 400 on the MkIV at f/2.8 is 7 1/4", here at f/3.5 it's 9" and it would take f/8.0 to expand it to 20 1/2" which kind of approaches the distance seen above. BTW: using the 1D-X only brings it back to f/6.3. I rarely shoot above f/4 usually stuck between 2.8 & 3.5, just as you, in order to isolate a subject.
Oh, and note to self on using the X, don't put my fingers were Frank did
