Gonna take a shot here and say that there's 3 different rulings. I'm basing this off of play 287 from the BRD:
OBR -- dead ball, R3 out. (7.08f)
FED -- dead ball, R3 and R2 ruled out (prevented a possible double play) (5-1-1f, 8-4-2k)
NCAA -- live ball (8-5k)
OBR can only have a DP if R3's actions were with intent to break up the DP. FED can have the DP if the interference prevented a DP, even without intent. NCAA requires the fielder to have a reasonable chance to field the ball.
Just a guess,
Dennis
