Turn the page, different scenario, different rule. We are discussing the BR making contact with an already-batted, fair ball with some part of their body outside of the batter's box.

I followed the same reasoning as Brian in my original response. Mike's right - one is dealing with hitting the ball with one foot out of the box, the other rule is worded contact with a batted ball while the batter is "within" the box. This batter was not "within" the box (even if she was not out of the box, either).
