In baseball speak, I think “on deck” is more appropriate than “batter’s box”

"On Deck" means the guy who is going to bat next. "Batter's Box" is the chalked square that the current batter stands in.

That’s why I think [bater’s box] is appropriate.

You know, just sitting around. Nothin else to do. Idle hands are the Devil’s work shop. Then comes that knock on the door.
