MLB Rule 10.02(a)(1)(iv) states: No time at bat shall be charged when a player is awarded first base because of interference.
THIS IS NOT THE ANSWER AS IT DOES NOT ADDRESS THE QUESTION.
The correct answer is that the batter gets credited for a single. See the following rule:
rule 10.05 a base hit shall be scored in the following cases:(e) when a fair ball which has not been touched by a fielder touches a runner or an umpire. EXCEPTION: Do not score a hit when a runner is called out for having been touched by an infield fly. (in this instance, the batter would have been automatically out on the infield fly rule)

∙ 12y agoIf a batted ball hits a runner in fair territory, the runner is out, and the batter is credited with a single and takes 1st base

Appeals are continuation plays -- thus, in this instance, the runner that was on 1st his run would count and the batter would be called out ---- now if this occurred with 2 outs then neither of the runs would count since the batter never technically reached 1st safely it would not be a hit and would result in any other situation where a runner crossed the plate but the batter was retired at 1st
