Runner on 1B. Lefty batter hits bullet grounder to 1B. Runner leaves on contact and is hit by ball (with first baseman behind him). Is the batter out or the runner out?

Runner.

No. Even though the batter-runner was not retired, the batter did complete his time at bat (i.e. became a batter-runner).
