ASA 8.2.F.1
Batter-Runner is out: When the batter-runner interferes with: 1. a fielder attempting to field a batted ball. I think the problem is in that because the batter contacted the ball with the bat, they are a batter-runner. Not entirely true. The definition of a batter-runner is: A player who has completed a turn at bat but has not yet been put out or reached first base. 8.1.A states: The batter becomes a batter-runner: as soon as the batter legally hits a fair ball. Since the ball is not in fair territory, the batter never completed the time at bat, nor did the batter become a batter-runner. Just my $.02.
