It's not really spelled out in the Rule Book, aside from the requirements that say the batter must be "within the box".

There are, however, three plays in the Case Book that fully describe what constitutes being "in the box" (it's the same as OBR).

The Case Plays are 7.3.2 A, B & C.

(*Edited to add: Have you ever had one of those "DUH" moments? I just did, when I realized that I was on the SOFTBALL board and not the BASEBALL board. Oddly, the Case Plays in the FED baseball and softball books are nearly identical! Not only that, they are under the same play number- 7.3.2).
