According to Dictionary.com
"What is malicious intent? It means that whatever action you took was done with the clear intent to cause harm, damage, injury, or death."

That a bit more severe than trying to dislodge the ball. We get to decide which act the runner is trying to commit, and our penalty is meted out accordingly.
