I think the definitions for fair/foul and in/out of the box are clear, the call comes down to judgement. Lead foot down and out of the box. I want to be 100% sure the batter is out of the box before I take that out, just the same as I want to be 100% sure she is out of the box on a slap hit before I take that out. I don't want to 'guess' outs. But by the same token, I don't want to leave outs on the field.

Foul ball unless I am sold that she was out of the box, then I have an out.
