In or out of batter's box

[chuck chopper]

Mike, I think that part of the book is talking about what happens once the ball is on the ground in fair territory and then the batter steps on the ball or the ball rolls up against him. I am looking at this as if the ball went straight down into the batters box then popped up in the air & hit the batter when one foot was in & one foot was out of the box. Do you feel that is then a different situation ?
