...At this age group...probably nothing...
At higher levels...the further the ball gets away..the more I expect the batter to make some kind of attempt to get out of the way....After all, who put the ball there? The defense. So, Im not going to penalize the offense unless I really see something egregious.
If I see a batter make an honest attempt to get out of the way, and he gets conked by a throw from F2, Im probably going to have nothing. The defense put the ball back there.
.. But at this level....technically you can call interference, since it sounds like the ball went far enough for the batter to move. But since its judgement, score the run....at 9-10 the kids are only thinking if they want grape or strawberry sno cone after the game anyways....
