Interference

This play came from the softball board and results in an unexpected outcome. Don't have my books here, and I suspect that baseball (both main codes) have a different ruling. Can you answer, and then post the relevant rule from OBR or FED?

Runners on 2nd and 3rd, no outs.

High pop up to shortstop. Runner from third scores, crossing the plate before the runner from 2nd intentionally interferes with the shortstop's ability to catch the ball.

What do you have?
