If a batter hits the ball, then steps out of the box with one foot only and then is hit by batted ball do you have a foul, or an out?
There have been two answers given to the asker, and I have also received two from a few umpires.

Where was the ball when it hit the batter/batter-runner? If it was over foul territory, I don't care where the runner's foot was.
