If the batter was still in the batter's box (not sure because you only said that a foot was in), it wouldn't make a difference if either hit was fair or foul provided the bat was still in the batter's hands and the batter didn't intentionally hit the ball a second time.

Could you clarify where the batter was?

Interesting the coach points out the position of the base umpire when he was probably standing nearly as far away looking through a fence.

I would certainly put the coach's comment in my back pocket and use it if he wanted an "appeal" later on.
