So in my scenario I am going to put this runner is NOT out according to the rules....

Runners on second and third and less than two outs. All four infielders are playing on the grass for a possible play at the plate. Runner on second is taking his lead and is behind the shortstop.

Linedrive at shortstop that is knuckling and he misses it on a shorthop right at him. Ball hits the dirt and bounces up and hits the runner behind him.

In this case it is a live ball because it was past an infielder and nobody else on the IF had a chance at it - is this correct?

What if in the same situation the ball never hit the ground but hit the runner in the air after passing the infielders?

Thanks guys.
