This is 7.09m and I hate it. Technically if the second baseman could still have made the play at first or second, and the ball hits the runner after passing the fielder, then the runner is out for interference.

The problem with this rule is that once the ball is deflected, it's awfully hard for anyone to make that play. I also think that this is somewhat contradictory to 7.08f.

Anyway, it sounds like you made the right call, but it's one that I hate to make.
