Help me please with this play. I'm not sure this went according to the rules. Is the interference nullified as long as BR reaches 1st base, or is it nullified as long as BR and all others advance at least one base.
Second question.
Field had large openings between backstop and dugout area (~25ft). If ball is thown out of play what becomes of all the offensive players.

1st Question. You had CI. Delayed dead ball. The batter / runner acquired 1st. R2, R3 were not forced so they do not have to advance. The CI is negated. Now if the batter did not reach 1st and R3 scored, then the OM has the option of taking the results of the play or the CI. R3 would return on the CI.
2nd Question. A thrown ball is a two base award. One base if pitched. TOP or TOT depends on who threw it and when.
