Is this interference or nothing?
Interference, an out.
USA SB 8.2.F BR is out:
By discarding their bat in a manner that prevents the defense from making a
play on the ball.
Repeated in RS 52

No specific about bat in NFHS, but BR is out by interfering with fielder attempting to play a batted ball NFHS 8-2-7.a
