I had the same situation where the ball hit the bat and then did a slow dribble down the third base line. I pointed the ball fair when it stopped and the batter took off for first. The F5 threw the ball into DBT and the batter was awarded 2nd.

In the case of a foul ball, it pretty black and white. Did it hit the bat or not? Intent means nothing here. |

I believe the spirit of the rule is that the batter is gaining an advantage by stepping outside of the box. In this case, the batter is clearly not gaining an advantage by 'hitting the ejector seat button' and bailing. Crazy play, foul/fair ball depending on where the ball lands.
