A) hit

I can't picture how C) would happen but treat it like follow-through interference - dead ball - strike

OK, so you have catcher's interference in (B)? Are you going to allow R1 to stay at 3rd? Can you imagine how much crap an umpire is going to take on this one??? It's not going to be pretty. :-)
In (C), I can see how this could happen. All the batter would have to do is swing just a little bit later (and late swings are quite common on hit & runs) than he did in (B).
Rich, how absolutely BOLD of you to be the first one to chime in! Don't you know it's better to read everybody else's response and then critique how they are wrong?
