this is a classic HTBT play.. if the umpire judged the batter threw it down with intent to hit the bat, then he is out... but if not intentional, batter runner is safe until he is put out.

Rule 7 applies to a batter.

Rule 8 applies to a batter-runner.

Since this play involved a batter-runner, any rule or ruling you want to hang your hat on should come from section 8 of the rule book.

The batter drops bat and the ball rolls into it, I have nothing. The batter throws the bat and hits the ball, in flight or on the ground, I have interference.
