Just for clarity, the height of the strike zone is determined by the batter's normal position. The horizontal coordinates are always determined by the plate.
Permitting assistance for an injured player is always an automatic time out.
The boxes and everything else normally determined by lines always exist in exactly the same place. It is the lines tha are missing, not the boxes, etc. Case in point, no "foul lines" does not mean there is no fair ground.
