Interference?

[rsl]

I am new, and I read the rule book for the first time last week. So, forgive the rookie question.

Men's slow pitch with USSSA rules.

R1 is on first, and F3 is playing about 10 feet off the base and five feet behind the baseline. Batter hits a hot grounder right at F3. R1 runs on contact, and crosses in front of F3 about the same time as the ball. R1 manages to avoid the ball and F3, but F3's vision is obscured and the ball ends up in right field.

With no contact and no intent, but clearly an effect on F3's ability to field the ball, is this interference?

If R1 had held up or run behind F3, F3 would have had an easy play at second and maybe a double play.

Thanks in advance!
