Follow Through Interference
This might be a non-issue for MLB, but game 2 of Cubs/Nationals, man on first. Pitch was made and in the followthrough of the batter's swing, he hit the catchers mit and the ball popped out. The umpire called dead ball and sent runner back to first.
What (if any) is the MLB / NFHS ruling on that play? I am pretty sure MLB was correct because no coaches or players went crazy for the dead ball, return runners. But NFHS might be difference since that "hinders the catcher from making a play on the runner"....
