Here's the MLB rule: "If the batter is in a legal position in the batter’s box and, in the umpire’s judgment, there was no intention to interfere with the course of the ball, a batted ball that strikes the batter or his bat shall be ruled a foul ball."
What *I* heard the common-taters say was "If the ball hit his body, it's foul -- if it hit the bat, it's live."
