In most cases it will be 4+1

If the batter had his pants all the way down like a male gymnast, eject him and the coach.

Yes.

Which book(s)? Look in the sections for base awards. Or if you have an online version, look for the term catch and carry (in some books).

7.04 Each runner, other than the batter, may without liability to be put out, advance one base when-
(c) A fielder, after catching a fly ball, falls into a bench or stand, or falls across ropes into a crowd when spectators are on the field; A fielder or catcher may reach or step into, or go into the dugout with one or both feet to make a catch, and if he holds the ball, the catch shall be allowed. Ball is in play. If the fielder or catcher, after having made a legal catch, should fall into a stand or among spectators or into the dugout after making a legal catch, or fall while in the dugout after making a legal catch, the ball is dead and runners advance one base without liability to be put out.
