Right, so the batter who is right at the edge of the box can stride the width (or, I suppose length, depending on the direction) of his foot and still be legal.
And, just to clarify because I know Rich knows this, being outside the box is illegal (absent interference, etc.) only if the ball is hit (fair or foul).
