Runner (R3) is out on the interference.
Question is who leads off the next inning?
Looking for rule reference(s) that indicate whether or not B4 "completed her turn at bat" on the foul fly.
If it was less than 2 outs...easy...interference on routine foul or fair fly...both runner and batter are called out and B5 is next to bat

What is the rule cite for the batter being out in this play?
