So, what you're saying is this: The out on BR stands (for failing to touch first) and the fact that he was a victim of catcher's interference does not allow the umpire to invoke that penalty and AWARD him 1st. Is this what you're saying?

Dave, the catcher's interference obviously didn't stop the batter from striking the ball successfully, did it? He was able to obtain 2nd base!!!
Please explain to me...............
- What did the catcher's interference have to do with the runner missing 1B??
- Did the catcher prevent BR from touching 1B?
- Why should the BR NOT have to touch 1B?
