Had this last night, I'm sure it's simple. R1 on 2nd, 1 out. Batter hits a grounder and the catchers mitt. She get's thrown out at 1st, R1 is on 3rd. Now, after the play, BR get's 1st, but does R1 go back to 2nd? This was Dixie, 12U.
The Dixie rule says 8:02 THE BATTER BECOMES A BASERUNNER.
(D) When the catcher or any other fielder interferes with or prevents her from striking at a pitched ball.
EFFECT: 8:02 (D) The ball is dead and not in play and the batter is entitled to one base without liability to be put out unless the batter reaches first base safely and all other runners have advanced at least one base, then play continues without reference to the interference.
