Impeding a thrown ball, and impeding a fielder are quite different.
The OP reads as the BR has started toward 1st, therefore no "sanctuary" of just completing a pitch or a swing. Yes, we need to know if the BR impeded/hindered the pitcher and his second post read that way ("absent the batter, the throw would have (in the judgment of the umpire) been caught by the pitcher and they would have gotten the runner out") .
