USSSA uses OBR. They have a "no collision rule" but the situation described does not come under that category since there was no collision.
There is no equivalent of the FED FPSR.
The middle infielder should have thrown the ball just like the big leaguers do. Had he done that, a valuable lesson would have been learned.
Either ...
R1 would learn how much it hurts when hit with a baseball, or
The middle infielder would find out what happens when you try to throw *around* a runner who is in the way ... a WILD THROW!
