What is the ruling if the runner runs into the fielder?

Depends. What is the fielder doing at the time, fielding a batted a batted ball? Interference on the runner.
Maybe the fielder is doing nothing but getting in the way. Could be Type B or even possibly Type A obstruction depending what else is going. Could also be nothing.
