Well I'm very sorry to see umpires that know what they are going to call, but don't know why.

In sit. B there is no way I'm calling CI for a bat that has been released by the batter and prevents the catcher from making a reasonable catch of the ball, unless it is obvious as hell that the catcher interfered with the swing.

"Why can't a batter lunge at an outside pitch? What protects the catcher from interference (obstruction in NFHS) if he does? "

I have been asking that same question four times now and haven't got an answer yet.
