This discussion stemmed from the THROUGH OR BY post.

R2, left handed batter, all infielders (F3,F4,F5 and F6) positioned on the infield grass between the pitcher and 1B.
R2 goes on the pitch, batter hits the ball between 2B and 3B, which then contacts the runner. No other infielder had a play on the ball.

In an OBR game is the runner out or safe (play on)?

His contention is, that no matter, it is called the same as a FED called game.
I agree with him playing in a FED game, and out in an OBR game, because it has not went through or by and hit runner immediatly back of.

We have a rather large sum of money bet on this.

It's an out.
