Kind of a troll response - I never put you in that category before.
If the throw drills the runner (assuming it's not plainly obvious to the world that the catcher was TRYING to hit the runner, and not throwing to first base), then he did, in fact, interfere with the fielder's ability to receive the throw.
It's not rocket science. Don't make it harder than it is. (And if you don't believe the 100% agreement in the responses you're getting, ask your clinician or UIC ... OBR, all over, is interpreted this way. FED, all over, is interpreted more broadly)
