archangel,
As others have already told you, this is not "FED legal".

PA Blue,
I will concur with Bob Jenkins, and assert that it (i.e., the interpretation) is simply wrong.

It's a foul ball.
Since it's a foul ball, it cannot be an IFF & the batter cannot be out on an IFF.

Michael,
In FED (and NCAA) it's the "entire foot" (or "any part of the stride leg" in NCAA). OBR, it's "any part" of the free foot.
