Always check the open questions before asking your own question, as this question was asked only a few hours ago.
The base is not a safe haven, unless you're hit with an infield-fly. In that case, you're safe because the batter is already out and there is no force on.
If it's not an infield-fly, you are out if hit by a fair ball in territory in the following cases:
(1) The ball has not touched an infielder (including the pitcher) and has not passed an infielder (excluding the pitcher).
(2) The ball has not touched an infielder (including the pitcher) and has passed an infielder (excluding the pitcher), but another infielder could have fielded the ball.
If you are out, the ball is dead and no runners can advance unless forced to do so by the batter-runner's being awarded first and credited with a single.

It really depends. If you are hit by a batted ball while off the base then you are out. If the ball is thrown you just end up a little sore.

A hit baseball, if the ball has not yet passed a fielding player who has a reasonable chance to make a play on it (in the umpire's judgement), then yes, you're out.
A thrown ball, no, unless the ump decides you did it intentionally.

Yes you are out,unless the ball passed a infielder.You are also out if the ball hits you on the base,(the base is no safe haven),this applies only to a batted ball

yes, if you get hit with the ball only if you are in fair territory and you are the first person the ball hits off the bat.

Yes...this is why runners on third stand in foul ground as they come down the line during a pitch.

If you are hit by the ball by the batter then you are out. If you are hit from lets say a pickoff throw(Victor Martinez)it should be a balk. But if the umps don't call it a balk they messed up which reminds me of something that happened today.

Like the other dude said. If it's your mate who hits you, your out. If it's a fileder throwing it, you're fine.
