Didn't we have a rather long discussion a month or so ago where the outcome was that any throw touching a coach was not interference unless it was intentional ?

Related question, along the line of there has to be a play possibility. Batted ball in the air, caught or touched by a base coach. My impression is that it's the umpire's judgement whether a fielder could have caught the ball and if so, it's interference. If not, a public warning.
