the umpire rules fan interference ! in his mind the RF would have caught the ball.
but what about R1 ? would you call him out because he would have no chance to get back to 1B in time ?
thanks in advance

You can do whatever you think would have happened without the fan interference.
The three most obvious choices seem to be:
a) Call R1 out becuase he wouldn't have made it back to first.
b) Put R1 at first because he would have made it back.
c) Give R1 second because he would have tagged up and advanced.
