This is what interference is all about.

Contacted my state association. The response was basically this. If the batter-runner just has the bball bounce off her and does nothing else to interfer, there is no call. That is from the person in charge of softball in my states hs association. If she moves to into the ball then it is interference.

I believe this was essentially what the very first answer was to this question.
