B1 hits a foul pop just off the foul side of the runner's box about 60% of the way to 1B. F1, looking up at ball, collides with B1 just as he is about to catch the ball. The ball drops foul. Umpire says that there was no runner interference since the runner was in the runner's box and clearly "where he was supposed to be". F1 clearly would have made the play. Was this the correct call?
