Assuming OBR rules, if any of the batter's foot is still touching the line of the batter's box the umpire shouldn't have ruled the batter out. Only in FED is touching the plate during contact an out.
If the batted ball contacted the batter, the batter must be completely out of the box for the out to be called.
