Anyway, since we don't call HS ball, what is the difference in rules about the "Bat Hitting the ball"? The NCAA rulebook(11-15),


In/Out of box - Bat out of hands - Bat hits Fair Ball - Out
In/Out of Box - Bat out of hands - Ball hits Bat during a fair ball - Live Ball

I don't have a ASA book handy but am curious about that one as well.
The NFHS rule is different. It says...
Quote:
Rule 7-4 Art. 1 A batter shall be called out when:
k. after hitting or bunting a ball, she intentionally hits the ball a second time in fair or foul territory; the ball is dead, no runner(s) advance and the batter is out.
EXCEPTION: If the bat and ball accidentally come in contact with each other a second time while the batter is holding the bat in the batter's box, it is a foul ball.
NOTE: In the case ofintentional contact with a foul ball, it must have a chance to become fair in the umpire's judgment.
