You are so right. I think that some officials either do not understand what batter interference is or hope that it will just go away because the focus of the entire play happens at 2B. Many fans and players concentrate more on the play at second and miss what happens at the plate. I think sometimes there are officials that don't want to insert theirself on batter inteference because it can result in controversy. The easy way out is to let it go.

You got to "step up to the plate" when it is necessary.
