Then try this one on for size. Last night during a meeting we were discussing some of the things we have seen this season in HS ball. Several umpires stated that they have seen batters square to bat on steal plays, especially on those where the runner is on 1B, and then bring the bat back with the pitch in line with the catcher's eyes. Is this act alone, in your opinion, enough to constitute interference?
