manhong,
I think you asked this question!
In my situation, the batter hit the mit of the catcher. Could you please define what is the legal catcher's position???
If the batter intentionally interfered with the catcher, he may be called out or ejected and runners returned TOP.
NCAA and OBR No provisions in Fed. I would either eject or call out batter. Reference 2002 BRD pg 129 *256
Rule 1.1.3 Fed. "At the Time Of Pitch all fielders shall be on fair ground except the catcher who shall be in the catcher's box." In HS this is defined as having at least one foot in box or on fair ground for fielders.
OBR & NCAA both feet in.
