Reply to "Offensive interference"

Not sure there are 2 outs.

The runner is out if...

any runner or retired runner interferes (2-21-1, 2-30-3) in a way which obviously hinders an obvious double play;

And it is  an immediate dead ball if ...

e. there is interference by a runner, batter-runner (8-4-1g), or a retired runner (3-3-1n, 8-
4-1a, h or 8-4-2b, e, f, g or k), the batter (7-3-5), or by any person (3-2-3);

 

So... if the runner interfered with the fielder... it is an immediate dead ball... runner is out but batter/runner gets 1st base.

If there is no interference - IFF is called, batter is out - runners advance at own risk.

Sounds like a had to be there situation ... but I don't see 2 outs.
