I think you're trying to generalize too much, and confusing the issue.
If the pitch was the 3rd strike, batter is out. Further, if BR interfered with a play (ie a possible double play), the runner is out as well.
If the pitch was not the 3rd strike, and the batter interferes with the opportunity to make a play, SOMEONE is out. If less than 2 outs, the batter out and the runner returns. If 2 outs, the runner is out.
