Is the Runner out

[edhern]

Fed 8-4-2k

The runner is out when he:

is contacted by a fair batted ball before it touches an infielder...

Exception:
If a runner is touching his base when he is hit by an infield fly, he is not out, but the batter is out by the infield fly rule. The ball is dead, even in the exception.

Supported by the case book. It doesn't have to be a fly.

I don't know the OBR citation.
