I am going to jump in on this, I have to go with Irish here.

Simply running in a direct line, as fast as she can, in front of the fielder is not hindering the fielder's opportunity to field the ball. R2 has a right to the field that that F6 is not occupying.

I would have interference if: 1. R3 ran into F6 before she fielded the ball. 2. F6 had to adjust how she was fielding the ball because R2 ran so close to her, she had to adjust to avoid R2. 3. R2, while running in front of F6 intentionally changed her direction or speed to hinder F6's ability to field the ball.

I don't have interference the way the OP is written.
