It was in my judgment that the retired BR interfered with the 1st baseman, and in my judgment could have made an out at third.
I ruled the runner at 3rd out as well due to the interference.
Your thoughts?
Also, as a retired runner, are they entitled to anything?
Thanks.

What rules set?
As I envision the play, I likely do not have interference. I don't see this as any different from legal (whatever that is in the rules set being used) contact at second on an attempted double play.
