The interference/obstruction call can be very tough. Most of the time, it happens quickly and it takes me a second to digest what I just saw.
Our association is promoting a new signal for these type situations that look like something, but the umpire rules that nothing happened. It is basically a "safe" signal, but with the fists closed and no verbal. I have used it a few times and I like it. It lets you communicate that you saw the play and you have no rule infraction.
Does any other area use this?
