How do we enforce the CO penalty?
Since bases were juiced, every-one moves up a base. The interference is "waved off" because in fact it didn't happen.
If we go by your ruling you would enforce the interference and the inning would be over and ignore the CO infraction. That's not what happens.

Says you. Prove it.
In this thread, I've already cited 8.3.2H, which deals with a different scenario containing both obstruction and interference. That case states:

Now, you claim that the interference is "waved off" or ignored, or some such. Please provide ONE citation in ANY rule book that says anything remotely like that in a case with both obstruction and runner or batter interference.
My position is: I have cited authoritative support for my interpretation, and you have not done the same. I do not take your word for it, and merely declaring that I do not understand fails to provide the requested rules support for your view.
