If the Batter has part of his foot on Home Plate but part of the same foot is on the white line of the batter's box, is he out if he hits the ball? Little League / Major Boys

No

Entire foot has to be out of the batter's
box. White lines are part of the box.
Have fun explaining this to any coach.

Just refer the coach to rule 6.006(a)

Possible confusion because in softball, batter making contact with foot placed as described IS out.

Also true in Fed baseball.

Not in Little League softball.

Re: Not in Little League softball.

I should have specified ASA and Fed. Forgot all about Fed baseball, too, so thanks, Roger. I'll have to check the BRD to see NCAA's position.

NCAA
 

Same as FED. ALSO: If the batter hits a "foul tip" while not "within the lines of the batter's box" it is not a foul tip but a foul ball. Batter is out.

So Fed baseball, NCAA baseball, ASA softball, and Fed softball say your foot can't be touching the plate when you make contact.

MLB, Little League/Major Boys, and Little League softball say it can.

Never considered the foul tip wrinkle. NCAA says not a foul tip, batter out. How about the others?

Need to know soon.

There is another side of this. In LL the rule states that the foot has to land completely outside of the batter's box. If his foot is on the line, it does not matter if it touches the plate.

Do I hear an ECHO in here?

Treat just as for all batted balls.
