NCAA and NFHS question

[Rita C]

I had the following situation presented in another forum. NCAA or NFHS rules.

Bases loaded, 1 out, bottom of the 7th in a 3-0 game. Right handed batter smokes one down the right field line, and in the process of letting his bat go, it lands entirely into fair territory. R3 and R2 score easily and R1 is hustling to try and score. A relay comes in and the throw coming into the plate hits the bat and bounds out of play. BR is standing on 3rd as ball goes out of play. Tricky situation go ahead and make the call, and place all runners!


The poster insists that NCAA and NFHS rules will result in an interference call on the batter for throwing a bat into the field of play that interferes with a fielder trying to make a play. This would result in Batter out and runners returning.

By OBR and MLBUM this is nonsense.
