The batter.

However, 8.4.2 Sit B in the current casebook has the exact same play and it has the runner on third being declared out.

This FED rule was changed a few years ago. It used to be that the batter was out. Now it's the runner who is out. Someone just forgto to change the answer key.

I think I have heard that this question has been acknowledged by FED (or some state(s) ) to be incorrect.

I don't remember, but does it matter how many outs are remaining?

I feel like I remember reading at some point that w/ two outs we get the batter, w/ < 2 out we get the runner.

You're thinking of batters interference with a runner coming home.

Gotcha

R3 (the player who interfered) is out. Don't forget to add a strike to the count if there were less than 2 strikes already.

If the ball was fair, I think the batter would get 1st.
