We have a skunk in the outfield, and pitcher simply ignores him and pitches. Grounder passes F4. R1 and F9 taking similar paths, ball hits something in the outfield and hits R1 (uninententional contact), just prior to F9 being able to field the ball, and likely throw out R1.
Your call?

The ball has passed an infielder (F4) other than the pitcher so the ball hitting R1 is live and in play.
