My question would be: Did anyone run around the ball while they were watching it go fall and/or did the catcher come out from behind the plate?
As long as the ball is fair when he gets hit and no one on the defensive side ran around it at any point while they were hoping it went foul this is a hit base runner and he is out for interference.
On the other hand, if during the course of the play, if someone ran around the ball while it was rolling (passed infielder) then it is a live ball and no call. If the catcher came out from behind the plate at any point during the play say to try to make a play on the ball, I would consider him an infielder and then again would consider it a live ball and no call.
