The batters stand really close to the plate. If they step on the plate while not "swinging" at a pitch, is the batter out? Better yet can someone please explain the rule to me about stepping on home while batting.
Thanks in advance.....

NCAA - "At the moment of bat-ball contact, the batter may not contact the pitch when any part of the foot is touching home plate, even though she may be touching the lines of the batter's box.
EFFECT - The batter shall be declared out immediately, whether the ball is fair or foul. The ball is dead."
