And you probably don't have interference on this play at all. An opportunity for a play DOES mean a chance to complete an out, not just a chance to retrieve the ball. This ball passed 2 fielders. Depending on your ruleset, this might be BY RULE not interference... and if that is not the case, depending on your ruleset, then even if F7 had a chance to catch up to the ball, did he/she have a PLAY? Probably not.
I'm confused by which set of rules you are using. You state T-Ball, and "he" as the runner, and also state that you use "fast pitch" rules.
Which rules, really, are you using as your base set of rules? (ASA, OBR, Fed BB, Fed SB, etc)
