Interference question

Rob Kremer1,000+ posts

Leadoff batter walks, next batter bunts the ball on a line about midway between first and second. Batter/runner heads to first, running in fair territory about 4 feet inside the baseline.

Catcher heads to the ball. Runner is in catcher's direct path to the ball, so catcher basically runs through the runner, who, after being shoved another 5-6 feet sideways, keeps his balance and continues to first. Catcher grabs the ball and throws runner out at first.

Plate ump called interference, batter out, R1 returns to first.

Correct?
