| The call is a hit batter, dead ball batter gets first base and other runners on base advance only if forced

| federation 7-3-2 if batter steps out of the box or holds up her hand to request time and the pitcher legally delivers the ball, it shall be called a strike and the ball remains live.

| Unless something has changed in the NFHS rule book for 2016, the 2015 book says 7-3-2 is a pitched ball entirely in the batters box hitting a batter. I have seen some baseball posts referencing the rule you talk about, but not softball.

| You also have a pitched ball that has contacted the batter. By rule the ball is dead, it cannot remain live.

| Neal already answered. You have a batter hit by pitch. Being in or out of box makes no difference as long as they did not prevent the pitch from entering the strike zone.
