I'm BU. R1 on 1B. Standard pitch, batter pretending to bunt, runner stealing.
As F2 throws the ball towards 2B, batter moves across the plate and gets plunked in the head. PU,at this point has nothing. Ball goes down the 1B line and me and runner are bolting to 3B. We get there and PU calls time.
He then asks me if we can have interference, even if its late.
So I thought we could and so we had the batter out and runner returned to 1B.
There is a reason for an immediate dead ball on interference and I was reminded of the reason today. I'm pretty sure we got it right but it looked horrible, as in really not good.
So can we come up with a delayed interference on this play ?
