If the runner is hit with a fair batted ball while touching a base, the runner is not out. The ball is dead or remains in play depending upon the position of the fielders. If the ball has passed a fielder or touched a fielder, the ball remains in play. If the ball has not passed a fielder, the ball is dead, and batter-runner placed on 1st base. All other runners advance only if forced by placing batter-runner on 1st.
If the runner intentionally interferes with the ball while on the base, the runner is out.
