I didn't miss that but once the ball has touched a fielders glove, or any part of a defenders body, it is no longer a "batted" ball by definition. A defender is no longer fielding a "batted" ball at this point.

The rule book is for "ALL" levels of play no matter if it's Rec IV or Class B the rules are the same for all.
