Why would that make a difference? The ball is fair once it hit the bag.

Edit: I have an out in all codes.

OBR:

(f) He is touched by a fair ball in fair territory . . .

NCAA

8-5 A runner is out when:
k. The runner, including a runner in contact with a base, is hit while in fair territory by a batted ball . . .

It may be a fair ball, but it isn't fair territory.

Why would the batter be out?
