Just curious, why does Rule 5 Section 1 [Dead Ball]
state under art. 1 b.
Ball becomes dead immediately when: 1b. the ball is illegally batted or
comes in contact with the bat a second time.

That applies if the batter is still in the batter's box hits the ball and the ball comes back up and hits the bat again. It also applies if the batted ball comes up and hits the batter while still in the box. Dead Ball.
