I know this is about FED and I don't want to take it off topic. But, I figure this is still a topic to cover in OBR as well.

In OBR, runner is out.

Is NCAA the same? And, what is the ruling in FED?

FED

If a batted ball touches a runner while they are on a bag (1st, 2nd, or 3rd), what is the ruling?

what kind of batted ball?

what about a Infield fly?

what about a ball that has passed a fielder/s?

It hurts a little to admit that I did not know this rule. I used to feel pretty good about my rules knowledge but there is so much to continue to learn. Runner in contact with bag is NOT out if hit by infield fly (at least in FED and LL). Runner in contact with bag is NOT out if hit by fair batted ball that HAS PASSED an infielder (other than the pitcher and when no other player has a chance to make an out??). I think

The same rules apply if I'm not mistaken.

They do not. In both cases that Mazz through out there the runner would not be out. In the case of the IFF he is protected by being on the base and in the second the runner is no longer interfering with the fielder's chance to field a ball so he would not be called out for that.

It is a tough break, but it is no worse of a break than it would have been if he were off the bag a couple of steps. In all probability it's gonna cost them a run either way.

runner is out when contacted by a fair batted ball before it touches an infielder,except the pitcher and the umpire is convinced that another infielder has a play. on an infield fly if he is hit while off the base he and the batter are out

or after it passes any infielder except the pitcher and you are convinced that another infielder has a play.then the runner is out 8-4part2.k this does not apply to the IFF,unless the runner is off the bag when hit then the runner and batter are out

No... If a runner while on base is contacted with a batted ball with the IFF rule in effect, is not out. Even if it had not passed an infielder or not.

no one said he was out with the IFF rule in effect,only way he is is if he is off the base.we are talking about a runner being hit by a fair batted ball

(1)as for a fair batted ball ,the runner is out if he is contacted by a fair batted ball before it touches an infielder or after it passes any infielder ,except the pitcher,and the umpire is convinced that another infielder has a play then the runner is out.

(2) Infield fly if a runner is hit by an IFF when he is in contact with the bag the batter is out and the ball is dead.If he is hit by an IFF while off the bag he and the batter are out

(3) a ball that passes a fielder that is answered in (1)

Blp79, check your last post. It sounds like you have it but I think you missed a not in one part. It is the same in all major codes.

I inserted a correction in italics, see if it corrects it or not.
