You know catchers do not interfer! They obstruct.

I know, but the rule book lists it as "interference by the catcher on an attempted squeeze play" (as well as under obstruction). Incidentally, the MLB baseball rule book calls it "catcher's interference."

A search of my old rule books shows that the part that is now 8-1-D-4-b was once 6-5-C.

(Rule book is hyphens, case book is periods, right?)
