Must of you are aware by now of the new ASA rules and the one that covers interference on a fly ball(fair or foul)that we now have the runner and the batter out. BUT some key words here on this play that most of you vets probably already got but this umpire didnt relize until I was rereading again tonight since it is too cold to do anything else is this EFFECT only takes place if the catch is so deemed ROUTINE and with ORDINARY EFFORT if not we use the old ruling which is Runner ruled out and strike on the batter covered in POE#31d. I will bet that this will cause some problems for awhile till everybody gets on the same page
Hopefully by typing this out I will remember it when it happens in one of my games
