Are you saying "show me in the rule book?" You would have to determine what is meant by "passing a fielder" and that requires interpretation, which Jim Evans has provided.
The intent of the rule is to protect a runner who isn't reasonably able to get out of the way of a batted ball, not provide a safe haven for runners.
