How close was the fielder

Debeau - see my post to Dave. The fielder is still afforded some protection, but surely the BR cannot be expected to avoid a ball deflected off a fielder - especially one that's still that close to the fielder it deflected off of. Running into the ball itself is governed by a completely different set of rules from running into fielders.
