So I figure, well, interference with a possible out would have to result in an out, so the answer has to be false. But I had a hard time visualizing the play. This question would have been better as multiple choice, since it's R1 (closest to home), not R2 (being played on), who would be out.

Given that R2 started on 1B, and the play is at 3B, our group realized that R1 scored long ago on this passed ball; and R2 is the the runner closest to home at the time of the interference.
