Read it and weep. Where do you see "delayed dead ball", ANYWHERE?

Jaksa/Roder-- They say: "It is inteference if a coach physically assists a runner's advance or return to a base. Penalty: such runner is out but the ball remains live."
In J/R's world the ball isn't "delayed dead" or immediately dead; they leave the ball live. IIRC, JEA also leaves the ball live.
