Intent to do what?

If the umpire determines the player deprived the defense from a possible out, then it's interference whether there is intent or not.

If there is no possible play, then there is no INT regardless of intent.

Remember, a possible play by the defense is still umpire judgment.

I don't believe there is anything that has been noted here that would indicate an USC ruling.
Just trying to anticipate where Scott is going with this.
If the contact with the player was intentionally defelecting into DBT whne there was a possible play, would that be UC?
