This is a case of a retired (batter) runner interfering.
Whenever INT is called, someone has to be out.
The BR was out on the catch by F3, then INT'd.
If INT is called, are we calling it on the BR and just calling her out? This ignores the fact that the catch was made before INT occurred.
If you don't call INT, what rule allows you to send the runner back to third base?
