Interference?
Had a situation today where I was base umpire. R1, stealing. After the pitch, the batter steps on home plate. The catcher stands up, brings back his right arm up to throw, but sees the batter on the plate, and doesn't throw the ball and doesn't even fake a throw to second base. Would this be interference by the batter? The catcher didn't actually throw the ball, but he would have had the batter not been there.
