Mark,
If I were in your shoes, here's what I would have done.
I would merely place the BR and R1 where I think they would have ended up had the call been made correctly. You'll probably get some flack from one side or the other but at least you would have corrected the mistake to your own satisfaction.

Besides, baseball rules allow similar judgements in different circumstances...specifically, fan interference. When there is fan interference, we umpires simply award baserunners and batter/runners what we think they would have gotten had the fan interference not occured. Really not much different than your "interference". To me this is great use of the umpire's best friend...9.01c

For what it's worth.

Regards, Dave Sirbu
