I don't think 7.09 (f) works for this situation.

7.09
It is interference by a batter or a runner when (f) Any batter or runner who has just been put out hinders or impedes any following play being made on a runner. Such runner shall be declared out for the interference of his teammate; If the batter or a runner continues to advance after he has been put out, he shall not by that act alone be considered as confusing, hindering or impeding the fielders.

This talks of a runner who has just been put out. Example: R3 is tagged out at home by F2, R2 is running towards home, and R3 hinders F2 making him miss the tag on R2. So this rule does not apply to the original situation.

I think this was handeled pretty well (except for letting F1 pitch while B1 was standing talking to the base coach). Pitch is on the way to B2, and B1 starts running across the field. B2 hits a clean single to left. Eject B1, use you judgement on to what base BR would have obtained.
