There is no call, the ball is in play

2) ASA Co-Ed:
Batter barely hits the ball and it goes approx 1' in front of HP....she drops her bat in front of the plate (IMO normal bat drop; not intended block ball) and ball rolls into discarded bat. Call?
Again, I would appreciate rules references if you would along with comments/opinions.

If the ball rolled to the bat, nothing.
