The rule specifically states interference with a fielder TAKING a throw. Not making a throw. A catcher who makes a bad throw for fear of hitting a BR (who might end up back in the running lane by the time the ball gets there) is simply "Dumb Move Catcher".
Buggbob - it's nice to have an opinion of how you think things OUGHT to be ... but you've gotta back it up by a rule. Reread this rule and tell me how you justify calling this interference, based on the RULE, not opinion.
