Hello from the East County also.

Catchers Interference...not a balk or anything else. People like to call it a balk since it explains the reason for sending a potential steal to the next base.

But a balk does not send the batter to first. So it is catchers interference. Batter needs not make contact with the catcher for this call. If the catcher is out of the catchers box (i.e., infront/on the plate then it is interference).

Do you use the County for your games?
