This is umpire's discretion, but usually if the runner is in the runner's lane (the two parallel lines starting half-way up the foul line between home plate and first base) the runner will not be called out. However, if in the umpire's judgment the runner is in the runner's lane but is deliberately trying to interfere with the throw, the runner can be called out for interference.

Runner on third taking a lead is hit by a thrown ball from catcher while in fair territory is he safe or out?
He is out for interfering with a thrown ball while running out of the baseline. The same is true with a runner running to first base. Tom Seaver said that when he saw a runner running to first in fair territory he would throw the ball into his back to get the quick out.

Can you play Baseball?
The game begins with two opposing teams. There are four different bases, if you make it to each base your team make one point. To do this you go up to hit. This is where the pitcher, throws the ball at the catcher. If its a good pitch is called a "strike". If its a bad pitch is called a "ball". A umpire makes these calls. When you hit the ball and it is caught before hitting the ground the hitter is out. Or if the hitter hits and the ball is caught and present at the base the hitter is running to he/she is out. The positions are the following. 1 baseman,2 baseman.3 baseman,catcher,pitcher,right outfielder.middle outfielder, and left outfielder. The team with the most points at the end of the game is the winner.
Is a runner out if the first baseman has his hand on the ball while the ball is still no the ground but does not lift the ball off the ground?
Yes. They would be out. Think of it like this. If a runner is running home from third and the catcher slides onto the plate with the ball, the runner is still out, even though the catcher is on the ground. As long as the Defensive player has possession of the ball, and is touching the base, the offensive player would be considered out.

What is softball sliding?
When running to a base when there is no force, it is easy for the baseman to tag someone when they are coming in running. When you slide, it forces the baseman to catch the ball and then tag the runner, who is laying on the ground. To slide: tuck your right (or left) ankle under the opposite knee. Ease yourself onto the ground, sliding with your out-stretched leg's foot, touching the base.

How can a base runner advance on a caught fly ball with less than 2 outs?
Generally, no. Absolutely not. If the baserunner break home on contact, he would be hosed at the plate by the third baseman. If he freezes, and waits for the third baseman to commit to throwing to first, the first baseman would have plenty of time to throw home and nail the runner.
