For the sake of debate:
R1, 2 outs
ground ball to F6. F4 takes the throw on the bag LF side. easy out.
While F4 is still on the bag with the ball R1 continues thru the bag on his way to his position in LF. As he passes F4 their forearms brush.
Is this a FPSR violation?
Is there a point where the letter of the law becomes so absurd you can't even consider it as being a violation overlooked?

Yes, but there are two outs, so there is not penalty. I will tell the runner to make sure he gets down or runs the other way.
Yes there is. Have you seen that in every single post I have made including this one that I said we can debate whether to pass on this interference or not? If not, I have repeated it again.
Also, my original point is and remains that those of you who argue that this is not interference because there is not a play are wrong; the rule is clear you do not have to have a play for their to be interference.
