Batted ball stops in batter's box, do you draw your imaginary lines and determine if it is fair or foul?

These are pretty basic questions.

Have you read a rule book recently?

A ground rule defining the top of a fence as a home run would overrule the most common ruling that if the ball came back in the field of of play it would be all the runner could get.

A ball hit directly to the batter's box, without touching the batter, could be fair or foul, depending on where the ball was fielded by a defensive player.
