So, in reply to the original poster...
in OBR it is only possible to be out if one (or both) feet are completely outside the batter's box, ie. you can have a part of a foot on the plate and in the batter's box at the same time, and not be out.

Reminds me of a joke I will not repeat, but size matters, 6 inches, 4 inches or 2 inches, as in foot length and distance from the plate on the pitch, and other more important things.

And the verdict. My 3 year old (who is small for her age) could indeed step on both the batters box and the plate at the same time. Measured the shoe at home - 7 1/2 inches.
So yes ... any normal ballplayer can EASILY step on both the line of the batters box and the plate at the same time.

I guess I must retract my "Bigfoot" comment then. We'll call her "Averagefoot."
