Runner Hit by Pitch

[blueump]

The dead ball chart in the FED rule book awards a baserunner 1 base for being hit by a pitch. Can anyone give me a situation where this would REALLY happen?

The only thing I can imagine is if a runner is stealing home and crosses the plate just as the ball does. Would that constitute interference on the baserunner? Would the ump call a ball or strike? Is the ball then dead? How about catcher obstruction?

Any other situations where a runner could be struck by a pitch???
