With two outs the batter is out, with less than two outs the runner is out and the batter is not penalized.

I think that is backwards. With two outs and the runner trying for HP, the runner is out. I believe in all other situations the batter is out.

With two outs, the batter is out and no run scores. Otherwwise, the runner is out.

6.05 n) With two out, a runner on third base, and two strikes on the batter, the runner attempts to steal home base on a legal pitch and the ball touches the runner in the batter's strike zone. The umpire shall call "Strike Three," the batter is out and the run shall not count; before two are out, the umpire shall call "Strike Three," the ball is dead, and the run counts.

7.08 g) He attempts to score on a play in which the batter interferes with the play at home base before two are out. With two out, the interference puts the batter out and no score counts;

7.09 d) Before two are out and a runner on third base, the batter hinders a fielder in making a play at home base; the runner is out;

7.09d - "Before two are out and a runner on third base, the batter hinders a fielder in making a play at home base, the runner is out."
