Tony, you are correct with the different rule sets. Before posting I forgot to check the PONY rule book
I could not find a fly ball exception, but here is the text of the PONY rule.
Rule 9 sec 8.j When the baserunner interferes with a fielder attempting to field a batted ball or intentionally interferes with a thrown ball. If this interference, in the judgement of the umpire, is an obvious attempt to prevent a double play and occurs before the baserunner is put out, the immediate succeeding runner shall also be called out.
I agree with BU that the runner did not intentionally interfere, therefore, according to the above rule, I only get one out on the play.
