This point is not present in the OBR!So,the running lane in the OBR,is it good for all the infielder's plays?

Yes. The general thought is that a throw from outside the box where the plate and the pitcher's mound are opposite corners that hits the runner cannot be a "quality throw".
Not that interference isn't possible; just that it's extremely unlikely.
