This question is just for fun, but the situation happened last summer during one of our HS games.
Lefty batter hits the ball, and is in the act of running down the line to first base, but still in foul territory. She is not a slapper. The batted ball was a blooper that actually hit my batter in the shoulder as she was still in foul territory. Plate umpire called her out. The ball hit her and she was out of the box he said. I said she was in foul territory still so its merely a foul ball. ( I lost the argument)
You make the call! Is the batter out?
FYI - the ump is a friend of mine so I didn't kick dirt on his shoes!
