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".
You are missing the point. You said you were at a game played by 12 yr. olds so you probably had inexperienced umpires.
I do not have to tell you how I arrived at my call, just like you do not have to tell me why you made a pitching change or sent the runner home who was a "dead duck" at the plate.
It's a simple answer: "Skip in My JUDGEMENT the runner DID NOT interfere with the fielder's ability to make a play"
END of Story
If the coach keeps going on an on then they can look up or read any rule they want in the parking lot.
Rule clinics are NOT conducted during the game.
