The FED definition of "play" is something like "from the time F1 releases the ball until F1 has the ball back and action is relaxed."
So, in the context of this discussion, "outs on the play stand" means what we've been saying -- outs during the play following the improper batter hitting the ball stand.
If it meant what you imply, it would read "outs made during the improper batter's turn at bat stand"
