Stat-sheet wise, a batter's turn officially starts when the first pitch happens.

However, there are a number of ways he could not get credit for the plate appearance. If he leaves the at-bat -- injured, ejected, or otherwise -- he does not get a plate appearance. The only exception is if he leaves with two strikes and the new batter strikes out, then the first batter is charged with a strike-out. (See rule 10.15b)
