Who said "...but did not interfere with throw", you or the umpire?
Maybe the umpire did believe that the BR interfered....... maybe the umpire believed that although the throw was a little high, F3 could have caught it but the BR being out of the lane hindered his ability to see the thrown ball and effected his timing......
If that was the umpire's reasoning, he made the correct call...
On the other hand if his reasoning was the BR caused F2 to make a bad throw, see Bretman's answer...
