Now am I mistaken? I thought if a ball touched ANY player while in foul territory it was a foul ball. I can't stand the excuse I didn't see it, I mean there's 4 umpires out there and the balls going at one angle, and then goes at a 45 degree angle I mean get a clue! I'm sure it's not that they don't know the rule that it's foul if it touches someone in foul territory, I mean this is HS playoff baseball!

You got it wrong. It dosen't matter where the player is when he touched it, the ball is judged on where it is when it is touched. He could have his one foot touching foul territory, and his kicking foot, could be over on the fair side of the line when it hits the ball.
Ohh and I think when he says "jammed on the hands" he mean that the batter hit the ball on the bat, but on the thin part close to his hands.
