Why Wasn't This Interference?

From the Nats/Phils game on Monday (sorry, still don't know how to embed videos here):

Click on the video on the right entitled Brown's RBI single.

F3 had to steer clear from the advancing BR before attempting to field the ball. Yes, it was deflected by F1, but I thought deflected balls only alleviate base runners if they get hit by them. They still have to avoid fielders who are fielding them, correct?
