Simple, to the point. Don't complicate things with things that didn't happen (such as CO).

Where does it state that there was no play attempted?
It really doesn't make any difference what any of us say here. In the umpire's judgment, clearly stated a couple times, there was no interference.
Would some of us have made a different call? Very possible, but without actually seeing it, we really don't know if it was INT or not.
