So I would say the BR is out in all three situations.
Similar language is found under NFHS 8-6-16c and NCAA 12.8.7. And none of them require intent on the offensive player.
It can't be this straightforward, though, if you're bringing the question here from another board. I'm curious if there's a hang-up with intent.

This sounds right to me if and only if the throw from the catcher that was interfered with had a shot at getting BR2 or BR2 advances to second because of the interference. If F2 was throwing back to F1, then where's the play.
