...and Pete, the batter does not have the RIGHT to stand in the box. He has a RIGHT to hit the ball. After that, he must make an attempt to get out of the way of any ensueing play.

So the batter swings and ball gets away from the catcher and goes to back stop. Batter has the RIGHT to stand in the batters box and watch the play and get in the way as long as he is in the box??? Come on! Help us out in this forum. Don't quote. We can all do that.
