UIC and leadership told me after the game it was a call I should have passed on. I still respectfully disagree. (Irish, this is the tournament on the East Coast where you and I met in person for the first time.)

Not the same call. You call interference on a RETIRED runner which would have the effect of the runner closest to home as an out.
The call I referred to is when a RUNNER interferes with a double play opportunity and the trailing runner is called out.
The former is common; the latter I've never called.
