Runner on third, FED rules, batter hits a grounder to third. Third baseman throws home, runner slides in safely. Catcher then throws to first to try to retire the batter-runner, but hits him in the back with the throw because the batter-runner is outside the 45-foot lane.
If there's 2 outs: Batter is out for interference (8-4-1g), no runs score (9-1-1a).
How about if there are runners on first and third when the play starts
Still the same ruling if the ball hits the batter outside of his three-foot lane w/ 2 outs.
