It's about a dopey edit in the rule book.

The Batter-Runner is OUT:
[2011] 8.2.I When an infield fly is declared. If the fair batted ball hits the batter-runner before reaching first base, the ball is dead and the infield fly is invoked.

[2012-present] 8.2.I When an infield fly is declared and the fair batted ball hits the batter-runner before reaching first base. EFFECT: The ball is dead and the infield fly is invoked.
