bossman72,
What was illegal about the bat? Under OBR it matters as to whether the bat was simply "out of spec" (play stands, no penalty, bat removed when discovered to be illegal) or had it been "illegally altered" (play nullifed, batter out & ejected, bat confiscated)?
FED does not make the distinction between "out of spec" & "illegally altered" - either way, batter is out, offensive benefit is nullified, any out on the play stand. Batter subject to out penalty upon entering box with an illegal bat.
