Remember this is 8-10 year old kid and a scored triple could mean just about anything. Some catchers are practically over the plate. Somewhere near HOME plate. Good catchers react to cover the plate immediately when runners are in scoring position. There isn't much distance to cover.

You're not suggesting he was in foul territory, or he wasn't attempting to make a play at the plate with two runners on board. Now if that batter hit the triple (???) with the bases empty, I haven't got that intereference call at the plate.
