Firstly a high level catcher with an accurate arm will step and throw the BR out .
If they dont , well they aint high level .
We obviously have umpires judgement here but I wouldnt call dead ball interference in this scenario with the catcher except for D .
The runner shouldnt have been there and was hit by a thrown ball in fair territory .
Batter runner is out
When he runs outside the 3ft lane and in the umpires judgement interferes with
a) The fielder taking the throw at first or
b) The thrown ball preventing a fielder from making a play at first base
