I would think call R1 out and allow the BR 1st then after fuss have to eject the coach(grin).

Try: 2-32 "...a member of the team at bat who interferes with, impedes, hinders or confuses any fielder attempting to make a play...." and, 3-6:6 (only runner(s) and on-deck, and batter allowed on field) and, 10-2:3g would lead to the conclusion that the extra player interfered with the play.
It does not matter what the designation of the member is.
