In USA softball the batter is always out if they interfere on any play.
Runners return.
However, if the interference occurred after the batter struck out then the runner closest to home would also be called out.
It would be different in baseball where the runner attempting to score would be called out on Batters Interfernce unless it was two outs before the interference occurred.
In that case the batter would be called out and no run would be scored.
