"First and Foremost Interference is a JUDGEMENT call. Regardless of what happened if in the JUDGEMENT of the umpires there was no interference then there was no interference."
Correct.
However I come out and ask the ump how he arrived at his call and he says "in my judgement the runner was in the baseline and therefore cannot be called for interference".
Hello - Sounds like a great time to show the umpire the correct rule (even after the game, heck, just so he get's it correct next time). Happened at my sons 12 yr old game last week. Ruling was wrong but in my favor so I was not asking the ump myself. That is what he told the other teams coach. I actually told the other teams coach after the inning that the ump did not get it right and that the coach could use my rule book to show him if he liked. He didn't take me up on it.
