NSA 7-6 "The batter shall not hit a fair ball a second time with the bat in fair territory."
Effect: "the ball is dead, the batter is out and baserunners may not advance."
Note: "If the batter drops the bat and the ball rolls against the bat in fair territory and, in the umpire's judgment, there was no intintion to interfere with the course of the ball, the batter is not out and the ball is alive and in play."
The old axiom "bat hits ball, dead ball; ball hits bat, play on" works in every rule set.
