rule 8-3-1c each runner other than the batter-runner is awarded one base when: he is attempting to steal or he is forced from the base he occupies by a batter-runner or runner who must advance because the catcher or any fielder OBSTRUCTS the batter, such as STEPPING ON OR ACROSS HOME or pushing the batter to reach the pitch or ......
I think:
runner who is stealing is awarded base, batter is not awarded either a strike or a ball since ball never reached home. Call is catcher interference, immediate dead ball and if the batter tried to swing at pitch and missed catcher, but catcher caught prior to reaching home, then we still have No Pitch.
Please correct me if I see this wrong.
