Anyway...
I know that for all situations, other than less than 2 outs with the Runner attempting to score from 3rd, the Batter would be out, and all Runners return on Batter's Interference.
But like today, what if the pitch was Strike 3, and the Batter was already out (1st out of the inning), and then caused Interference in a situation where the Batter is supposed to be out and the Runners returned ?
Thanks in advance.

I'm assuming varsity ball?
You might have to think about the intent. If F2 never attempts to make a play then how can you have interference.
We can't just assume that the F2 was going to make a play.
Now if its "small ball" might be a little different.
Bob had the answer as to who is out!
Thanks
