I'd say that the batter would be "out" as in ejected from the game, which should also render him out in the other sense. However, I don't think the rules specifically cover this situation. If the ump chose not to eject the batter, it'd probably be a strike (or a foul or a fair bunt, depending on whether the bat hit or not).
