I have always said it is at the instant the ball is batted because the rule says the batter is out when "she hits an infield fly". It does not say when the umpire recognizes or decides or announces.
The quote is from NFHS, because the ASA book does not say the batter is out unless the bated infield fly hits the batter.
I guess we are going to quibble about B vs. BR, but it doesn't matter.
