Yes, but the coach won't like it. After every move a pitcher does, it's good practice for the batter to step at least one leg out of the box to regain composure and focus. As long as he has one foot out of the box, the pitcher can't pitch.

What is the official scoring for the batter if he is hit in fair territory by his own batted ball?

That batter would be called out. If the ball goes directly from his bat to hitting the batter when they are not in the batters box, the batter is out. If a defensive player deflects the ball before it touches the batter then play continues as normal.


Is it scored a strike out for the batter if he is hit in fair territory by his own batted ball?

If the batter is still in the batters box, it is a foul ball, otherwise, the batter will be ruled out, and it is a dead ball with runners returning to their bases This is wrong, if the ball hits the bat a second time in fair territory the batter is out, standing in the batters box means nothing in this rule. see MLB rule 6.05 h

Batter's interference is when the batter interferes with the catcher's ability to throw and catch a ball that is in play. An example of this is if the batter were to obstruct the catcher when a teammate is stealing a base, resulting in the catcher's inability to throw out the runner.

How do you get three outs with only two batters up to batt?

Anytime a player is skipped in the batting order and it is recgonized then the batter whos spot they are in the lineup is ruled out. Therefore if you skip a batter in an inning and it is pointed out then the other 2 batters get out, you would have 3 outs with only 2 players actually batting. i.e, You are due up the 3rd, 4th, 5th spots in the lineup. When the inning starts, say #4 batter goes to the plate and receives a pitch (not put in play) --- the umpire or other team realizes your team "batted out of order" then the #3 batter would be ruled out (without ever coming to the plate), and your #4 batter would remain batting, say he flies out, #5 batter comes up and flies out --- 3 outs, only 2 batters

There have been no perfect games by the Tigers. On May 7th, 2011, Justin Verlander threw a no-hitter against the Toronto Blue Jays where he faced the minimum 27 batters, but he walked a batter in the 8th, and the next batter hit into a double play.

What is a full play in baseball?

There is no such phrase in baseball as "full play." The closest I can think of would be a "Triple Play" where two runners are on and the batter hits the ball and both runners and the batter are put out on the same play.
