What happens if a base runner is hit by the ball

In baseball, a batter can be awarded first base if he is hit by a pitch (HBP), but what happens if a base runner is hit by a batted ball? The answer depends on the situation.

Runner on First

If a runner on first base is hit by a batted ball, it is a dead ball and the runner is awarded second base. The batter is out if the ball was hit on the ground, but he is not out if the ball was hit in the air.

Runner on Second or Third

If a runner on second or third base is hit by a batted ball, it is a dead ball and the runner is awarded the next base. The batter is out if the ball was hit on the ground, but he is not out if the ball was hit in the air.

Runner on Home

If a runner on home plate is hit by a batted ball, it is a dead ball and the runner scores a run. The batter is out if the ball was hit on the ground, but he is not out if the ball was hit in the air.
