That's what I have been saying in everything I have written/typed in this thread. If you want to call interference on a play simply because the runner was doing what he was supposed to do, then go ahead. (Edited to add "unless the fielder interferes or alters the play")

Now you go it. That's what I've been saying all along. The runner can either slide or not slide. If he does not slide he cannot make contact with the fielder or alter the play.
