While I can't speak to the baseball side, I think this answer ignores a FP runner being picked off or caught stealing. Softball scoring also grants a hit to the batter if they would have reached safely absent any interference.

Third World Softball brings you the following:
B1: Singles to the outfield.
--B1 picked off at 1B (2-3 out)
B2: Singles to the outfield.
--B2 caught stealing 2B. (2-6 out)
B3: Singles to the outfield.
B4: Singles to the infield; B3 advances to 2B.
B5: Singles to the infield; B3 advances to 3B, B4 advances to 2B.
B6: Hits a ball through the infield, runners advance; B4 called out for INT with a defender as the ball is thrown from the outfield to F5 for a force attempt at 3B.

I got six hits in softball.

I never thought of your scenario but then B6 is not credited with a single but she advances to 1B on a fielder's choice.

B6: Ground ball toward infielder (say F6) and B4 is struck by ball prior to ball getting to F6. Yes / No??

(Not to derail a baseball thread but) It appears I was not entirely correct in a previous post. Different codes award this hit differently. ASA says no: 11-3-D. NCAA says yes: 14.3.12.

I am still interested in hearing how the baseball sequence would be different than a FP softball inning. Regardless, I've got five hits minimum in a FP SB scoreless inning...and I guarantee you I've seen it before.

When a Runner commits interference, the Runner is out, all Runners return to the Base they occupied at the ToP except if their are forced to advanced because of the Batter aquiring 1B. But in Baseball the Batter is credited with a Single, while in Fast Pitch Softball, the Batter aquires 1B on a Fielder's Choice.
