Sds:
Rich's answer suffices for my view.
A "better" example for you to ask would have been:
Right handed hitter, and the hit-and-run play is on. F1 pitches out so that the ball is in the left handed batter's box - - -
Batter reaches Waaay across and pokes the ball into right field.
What would you call?
Again, when tracking a pitch I would have no idea if the batter's foot was actually on the ground outside the batter's box -- I do not call what I do not see therefore I would ignore it.
38 years, 3801 games and I have never considered calling this "violation."
Regards,
