Infield Fly

This was a Superseries tournament, U9.

1 out. R1 and R2. BR pops up. Umpires points straight up indicating infield fly. R2 leaves 2nd and trips the shortstop, the privileged fielder, on his way to third base. The play continues and R2 is tagged out at 3rd base. What's the call?

The call on the field: the infield fly was enforced, BR out. R2 was called out on the tag. What about the interference?

The debate is whether interference should have been called on R2.

Some umpires believe only one out BR. R2 should have been returned to 2nd base.
