Keep in mind that "a step and a reach" involves actually interfering with the fielder, as in making contact. (Yes, I know interference can be verbal or a visual distraction, etc.) It doesn't involve sliding into the ball or even unintentionally kicking the ball in the course of normal baserunning.

No way is the play described interference.
