Umpire Hit by Foul Ball Rules Change Interpretation
When an umpire is struck by a fair batted ball before an infielder touches it, the batsman gets first base and the ball is dead. If a runner is on base, forced advances occur to make room, with runners on other bases moving accordingly. If a fielder has touched the ball, play continues and runners advance at their own risk. otherwise the ball is dead.
