I brought this one up at our weekly rules meeting and I am harder on int than most .
Most rules as all in this thread that there was no int .
ISF Rule 8(9)q 1 and 2
Interference occurs when
A coachintentionally interferes with a thrown ball while in the coaches box or
Interferes with the defensive teams opportunity to make a play on a runner or batter runner .
As we know interference does not have to be intentional .
As I said I rule harder on int but will review that in light of discussions here and my weekly rules session .
Note :
Discussion here has helped me in my umpiring decisions .
I did note a hint of sarcasm mccrowder( another made up NZ/Aust interp ).
