Batting in the shade

To be disoriented. Term is derived from baseball, when shadows covering the field make it difficult for batters to gauge the speed of pitches.
My friend was totally batting in the shade when he was trying to order a drink after he spilled the last one all over the bartender.

When I woke up in that guy's bed, trying to find my clothes on the floor was like batting in the shade.
