OK, so if the rules allows for blocking the base when you have the ball or about to receive the ball. Does the rules allow the runner to take what ever measures are needed to get to the base. Can they charge the fielder? Lower the shoulder and hit the fielder down? Do a flying side kick and take the fielder out of the game? I know I am sounding absurd at this point, but the point I am trying to clarify is the question can a runner run into a fielder with the intent to do it hard enough to get to the base safely at the expense of hurting the fielder?
