This was not a situation of a runner being hit by a deflected batted ball. That is a different rule. This was a situation of a runner interfering with a fielder attempting to field a deflected batted ball.

The runner is obligated to avoid a fielder attempting to field a batted ball. No rule book gives the runner a pass if the interference was caused by a bad bounce. ASA gives the runner a pass if the interference was caused by a ball deflecting off another fielder. Their logic in this seems obvious.

However, NFHS includes no such exception.

Still looks to me like interference in Fed.
