Its a delayed dead ball call. If runner played on is out, ball is alive, if not ..runner must return to base occupied at time of pitch,

You are correct.
I understand why most go with the basic rule, because it was at least 26 years before I had the umpire interference call. It can be on a catcher throw; or a batted ball if somehow the ump is in front of the infielders.
