If the BR outside the running lane interfered with the fielder covering 1st and that prevented an out; then it does not matter if the ball ends up in RF, fielder's hand, runner's back, foul ground, stands, dugout, on the infield, or wherever; it is interference.
Ignoring for the moment which rules about which foot, which part of the runner is hit, etc.
