I am with you 100 percent on that one, Mike. To me, "the throw" so obviously means "the throw to retire the batter-runner," that the words don't have to be written down. How can BR interfere with a play when there is no play?
Let's throw their own rule at them. Doesn't it say, ". . . in running the last half of the distance to 1B"? What if the BR is walking?
