I've had guys in MSBL throw hissy fits at me because I called an out when F3 tagged the base with his glove instead of his foot. But we also have a number of former Major Leaguers in our MSBL program, too. Some are recognizable names. Of course, our MSBL program has three age divisions, so we have all kinds of folks playing. I don't think a single one of them would've thought there was interference on that play.

Yes, I have no doubt in my mind that the game would've gone on without a single mention of the contact. There truly was no interference, only contact. The play was made unimpeded. F5 didn't lose a step. The out was made at first. Where is there something to complain about for anyone?

All this would be wonderful if interference was truly called this way, but it isn't.
