WMB - it's been posted to twice and directed to once. Why is this hard?

"A foul ball is a batted ball that: D. While over foul territory, a runner interferes with a defensive player attempting to field a batted ball."

So the instant the runner interfered with the defensive player attempting to field a batted ball that was over foul territory, you have a foul ball. A foul ball is a dead ball. Everything that happens after that (including the ball rolling fair) didn't happen.
