Would this be a delayed dead ball since there was a play in process? I agree with 7.07, but 6.08(c) seems to play into this also... does off. get to choose between run scoring and batter being awarded first? Or does the out stand and the batter get first? This would seem to follow the intent since it was the batter interfered with and not the runner. However, from one viewpoint the catcher isn't really interfering with the batter... hopefully he's not going to swing with a buddy coming home (roger he could bunt) ... but instead is using that knowledge to gain an advantage on the runner?

am I really as confusing as this sounds:-)
