Then you are looking for the wrong thing. If the runner was simply running the bases, ASA doesn't want you to call interference on this play. If there was some sort of hiccup in the runner's actions that caused the fielder to be unable to play the ball, you may have interference.
Your reference that your inexperienced umpire called this when you think experienced ones probably wouldn't have is odd, in that you're giving kudos to the newby for having the cohones to make the WRONG call! There's a reason the "experienced officials in your area" would not make this call ... it's because it's the wrong call.
