Speaking ASA
Yes, once the pitcher makes a play on
any (you're welcome) runner, the LBR is no longer in effect.

2. F6 attempts to field a batted ground ball. The ball deflects off F6's glove and rolls away from her. F6 takes several steps and is picking up the ball when contact is made with R4 who is running from 2nd to 3rd base. R4 shall be called out for runner interference?

HTBT, but no unless the player did something that was not part of running (i.e. pushed, kicked, hit the fielder) or deviated from his/her path to make the contact.

3. Batter B4 is attempting to avoid an inside pitch and the pitch hits B4's hand while it is still on the bat. The ball then rolls into foul territory. This shall be called a foul ball since the hand is considered part of the bat?

Only if you have no idea what you are doing. Repeat after me, "the hands are not part of the bat", "the hands are not part of the bat", "the hands are not part of the bat","the hands are not part of the bat",....... Don't forget to come back tomorrow when we cover, "the feet are not part of the base."
