If it was a good call, it was not such for the reasoning you're providing.

So if the ball went 10 rows up and the fielder jumps to catch the ball, but a fan reaches over, you do have interference because where the ball went is not relevant?
Just want clarification for how you make these calls without some knowledge of where the ball is going.
