I did a search earlier for "deflect," and it only pulled up 8-8-M and RS 26, but neither of them go into a ball that hits a runner on base that hasn't passed a fielder.

#1. THIS IS NOT A DEFLECTED BALL!!!! The ball is dead.
#2. 8.8.M is the appropriate ruling as it pertains to the status of the runner hit by the ball.
#3. 8.8.E.6 is the appropriate ruling as it pertains to the status of the player who hit the ball.
#4. RS #44.A is the appropriate reference as it pertains to all involved in the play.
#5. Stop mixing beer and orange soda and you will not have these brain farts.
