CajunNewBlue,
No, he could not have been called out on this play for running "outside the lane".
In order for the BR to be called out under the rule, he must both be outside the lane AND interfere with the fielder's opportunity to catch the throw at 1B. If you don't have both conditions, there is no out to be had under the rule.
