I posted this elsewhere also:
This is what the 2010 WUM says: "The umpire should immediately call "time." He will then callout the runner who interfered and award the Batter-runner first base or return him to bat depending on whether the ball becomes a fair or foul ball on the intereference."
That covers the OP if the ball was foul.
If the ball was fair the WUM has two reference plays that then have the batter out on the IFF and the runner out onthe INT.
BRD also has the Batter and runner out in this situation and seems to reference a PBUC ruling on this.
You can get two outs here if the ball is fair.
