Rob D.joe sewell was at bat for at bat the greatest pure hitter in history.
If the goal of a batter is to not strike out, then your statement would at least be in the neighborhood of being correct. The main objective of a batter is to reach base, with the end goal being to score a run for his team.
Placing too much value on making an out by flying out or grounding out as opposed to striking out is a common mistake.
