Couple of questions, please?

That sounded like a liner right back to F1, but since there was a play made at home AND attempted at 1B, I assume the hit was a grounder to F1?

What kind of bat was it? Wood I would expect, but do metal softball bats break in two like wood ones?

If the runner had slid normally into home plate and
had no opportunity to alter her slide in order to prevent a collision with F2 (bang-bang play), would it still have been interference? Did the fact that F2 took "2 steps" imply that either there was time enough to take 2 steps so there was time enough for the runner to alter her slide (therfore it was INT) or does the fact that F2 took 2 steps indicate that she was away from home plate and therefore if the runner slid into her it suggests she deliberately altered her slide in order to interfere with F2, therefore INT?
Thanks.
