Fielders Right of Way On Batted Balls
The fielder has priority on a batted ball and must be given space by baserunners. Interference occurs if a baserunner touches a fielder during a play, ruling the baserunner out. Baserunners may run wide to avoid contact within three feet after the fielder begins the play, but must stay in line if the fielder has the ball ready to touch.
