Per the discussion from 1.5 years ago, delay making a call, wait to see if the ball goes fair. If the ball stays in foul territory, it is nothing but a foul. If the ball goes fair, now call interference.

ASA doesn't cover this, since for interference on a runner can only be called if the runner interferes with a fielder attempting to field a fair batted ball or a foul fly ball.

Dead ball. Interference on BR. ASA 8.2.F.1


Edited to add the the bold portion of rule 8.7.J.1
