[QUOTE=Scooby]It was not interference because even though the batter was trying to get into the catchers way she did not succeed. I am trying to answer your question not justify my call. I am posting this because I believe that I could have handled the situation better and would like sage advice from other umpires.[/QUOTE
At the point where you judged the batter attempted to get in F2's way would have been a good time to kill the play with a batter's interference call.
What would I have done? I would have killed the play, called the batter out for interference, and placed R1 back at first base.
