Now, since you brought up the rule change, please comment on this text from the 2007 Rule Changes section:
"Rule 8 Section 7J3: When a runner interferes with a thrown ball.
Comments (from asa): This rule now clarifies the previous interpretation that the batter-runner was also included. It also removes 'intentionally' from the rule and allows the umpire to judge interference and not intent. It also matches the rule to the definition."

What sort of comment are you looking for? We've discussed this wording change (not a rule change) ad infinitum here already. What exactly are you asking?
